Yarn package for the Riika Top by rosa p.

The Riika Top is uniquely simple and beautiful. It has the cut of a classic tank top, is wonderfully summery, and its simple rib pattern makes it fit perfectly. 

You knit your Riika Top seamlessly from the top down and in the round from the armholes. The simple pattern is very quick to knit while still offering variety. You knit your top with Puno by Pascuali; we have created both undyed versions (with Puno) and dyed versions (with Puno Winikunka) for you. The incredibly soft Puno is simply wonderfully beautiful. Thanks to its composition of cotton and alpaca, it is perfect for summer while remaining wonderfully soft.

With its classic cut and great fit, your Riika Top can be paired with many things—you won’t want to be without it! Thanks to its wonderful shape, you can also wear the top as a thin sweater vest in winter.

You’re going to love your Riika Top!
