The Sommarøy Top is a feminine and highly versatile addition to your summer wardrobe. The elongated-stitch technique is easy to knit and creates a beautiful texture. The top is knitted in the lovely Silk Linen, which has a beautiful surface and is perfect for warm days.

How to knit it
Sommarøy Top is worked from the top down in a pattern with elongated stitches. First the upper part of the yoke is worked with a saddle shoulder. Stitches are then cast on to shape the front of the neck. Front and back sections are worked separately down to the underarm, where the sections are joined and the body is worked in the round. All hems are worked in garter stitch.
