Yarn package for the Minou Top by Luisa Rehkopf.

The Minou Top is wonderfully delicate and feminine. It is an elegant summer top that fits incredibly well and is very comfortable. The Minou Top is knitted with half brioche and cable patterns, allowing it to hug the body beautifully. Since the pattern is stretchy, you should knit it with approximately 3 to 13 cm of negative ease.

This beautiful top has wide straps, so you can easily wear a bra underneath without it being visible. The asymmetrical straps are also very comfortable to wear. The pattern also includes a variation with a higher back neckline.

You knit your Minou Top seamlessly from the top down using Classic Cashmere by Cardiff. This makes your top wonderfully suited to cooler days as well, while being very luxurious and incredibly soft against the skin.

Enjoy spring in your Minou Top!
