Aviayatoppen strikkes rundt i halvpatent nedefra og op med to tråde garn gennem hele arbejdet. Toppen deles først i to dele og strikkes frem og tilbage fra midt bag til midt for.

Herefter deles igen til for og bag, som strikkes færdig hver for sig. Toppens to halvdele fra midt for til midt bag er ens, og efter første halvdel er strikket, gentages opskriften på toppens anden halvdel.

Sizes: XS (S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL)
