Firatop is a quick and elegant summer top, with a feminine v-line by the neck.

The top is cropped and fits perfectly with a high waisted pair of jeans or skirt. It can also easily be adjusted with a longer bust, just remember to add the extra yarn.

The top is knitted from the bottom – up in the round. The work is split in two under the arms, and the two pieces are finished separately. The straps are sewn in the back with Kitchener stitches.

I hope you will be incredibly happy with your new summer top, and it would be lovely if you wound tag @Firatop or #strikrik on Instagram, so we all can get inspired by each other’s yarn ideas and colors. This pattern is translated by @marianordbypanvig, Maria Nordby Panvig.
