Tops are perfect to knit in the summertime. You can wear them on hot summer days and looks sexy, but you can also wear them on the colder seasons under an blazer or a cardigan and still look very cool. Daniela is a bit more advanced level knitter’s top. It features a beautiful cable knit motif in the front and 1x1 ribbings on the edges.

Daniela is a stylish choice for summer heat, but it’s also perfect to be worn under a blazer or a cardigan when it get’s cooler. Pair it with your favourite pants, jeans or skirt and you’re good to go!

I knitted this top from Nordic Yarn’s eco cashmere in color Kiruna. I recommend this yarn art it’s amazingly soft, luxurious and breathable. And it’s 50 % recycled so it’s also an environmental choice.
