ABOUT THE WORK
DIFFICULTY LEVEL: MEDIUM
The Tisvilde Top is named after my favorite seaside town where I spent all my summers as a child and teenager. It was with memories of teenage crushes, the feeling of sand between my toes, blue sky and the sea in mind that I created this top. I hope you will love making it as much as I have!
The top can be knitted in two strands of 8/4 cotton or 2 strands of mulberry silk + one strand of lace from Sabina Sistoe.
You choose whether you want to knit the top from the bottom up or from the top down. You will receive two files when you purchase the pattern, one with the top knitted from the bottom and another with the top knitted from the top.
The top has a positive ease/movement space of approx. 5 cm. The length can be adjusted using the straps if you knit from the bottom.

Is your yarn stock low - or does it just need a breath of fresh air? Then buy a Stopgarnspil package from Garnspecialisten, which sells deadstock and surplus yarn that would have been burned if they hadn't saved it.
