A short-sleeve mohair top worked in a single strand, made top-down. The design features a high sleeve cap and a shoulder line that doesn’t drop, giving a structured fit. Worked in a thin mohair strand, it is slightly see-through, so we recommend layering with an inner top. Its breathability makes it wearable in summer, and it pairs well with a thin long-sleeve turtleneck for transitional seasons. Anyone who has worked a top-down vest can tackle this pattern without difficulty, and tip videos are provided for the trickier sections.
