Meet Margaritari, a fabulous summer crochet top with a square neckline and a sleek cut. Worked in a luxurious blend of silk, linen and merino, it boasts shine and wonderful drape.

Margaritari is carefully crafted with masterful details to provide an easy-to-wear crochet top and a wardrobe staple.

The body features gentle hip shaping for a comfortable fit. The side seams provide stability and prevent the yarn from overstretching with use.

The generous sleeve openings will keep you fresh, but not overexposed. The wide shoulders straps ensure comfort and no slipping.

Margaritari means ‘pearl’ in Greek.

Instructions are given in written abbreviated form and US terms.
