ABOUT THE PROJECT
Tisvilde Top is named after my favorite seaside resort, where I spent all my summers as a child and teenager.

You get to 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.

Positive ease and fit
The top has a positive ease of approx. 5 cm. The length can be adjusted using the straps if you knit from the bottom.
