This holiday season, Itch-To-Stitch is giving us a wonderful gift with the new FREE Uvita Top ! OMG you guys, it's SO COLD! This was supposed to be Deadline-Free December for me, but when I caught wind that Kennis needed help with a secret test to surprise everyone with her next free pattern, I eagerly accepted the invitation.
