The Luca top is the perfect knitted top for hot days and sunny evenings. Worked in a airy lace pattern that is so easy to memorise, you won’t stop knitting. The back and the front are worked in the same way with a lovely v-neck. The straps are worked with the I-cord technique to make the fit perfectly.
