With Linoa another light and breezy summer top, designed by Heidemarie Kaiser, comes to us!
This pretty top with comfortable positive ease, is ideal for hot summer days. The conception of the design is particularly clever. You can actually swap front and back or wear it inside out - it always looks great.
Heidi designed Linoa in NL’s Sedalino, our favourite summer yarn, combining lustrous Mulberry Silk with crisp Linen from Belgium. We appreciate the pleasantly cool feel during sizzling hot days.
Linoa is knit seamlessly from top down with an easy to work rib pattern at front and back. It starts with the upper back worked down to sleeve separation in rows. Stitches are picked up at the shoulder and the front is worked down to sleeve separation with a rounded V-neck. Then back and front are joined and worked in rounds to desired length. It is an enjoyable and relaxing summer knit. With the edges finished as you go, there is no finishing work required except weaving in a few yarn ends.
