Yoko Top - Knitting Kit
Designed by Pernille Larsen - Knitting for Olive
Yoko Top is a wrap top with a sideway construction in rib stitch pattern that creates a graphic element of design. It is worked flat, in two separate reversed pieces that begin at the front, and are then grafted together at mid back. The top has I-cord shoulder straps and waist ties, and is finished with I-cord edges. Cropped and with a deep front neckline silhouette, you can wear it as a layering piece or as a summer top.
The Kit Includes
- Yarn (Knitting for Olive Pure Silk) in your selected size & colour

- 3mm circular and double pointed needles (optional add on)
Yoko Top is designed to have a negative ease, and is size inclusive.
