Päivänvalo Top

A beautiful little top is a sure way to bring summer vibes to your needles! The Päivänvalo Top is knitted in stockinette stitch using Sointu yarn. From the same pattern you’ll find two different versions: the floral version is knitted in a single colour and decorated with crocheted flowers, while the other version is worked in several colours of Sointu yarn, creating a fresh striped look.
