ABOUT THE WORK

LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY: MEDIUM

Tisvilde Toppen is named after my favorite seaside resort, where I spent all my summers as a child and teenager. It was with memories of teenage crushes, the feeling of sand between your toes, blue skies 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, for example, 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 receive two files when you buy the pattern, one with the top knitted from below and another with the top knitted from above.

The top has a positive ease/movement room of approx. 5 cm. The length can be adjusted using the straps if you knit from below.
