Café del Mar by Heidi Kaiser is a relaxed, no-frills top that highlights our lovely summer yarn Sedalino, a silk/linen blend that feels light and cool on your skin.
With deep V-necklines at the front and back, it is an ideal companion on hot summer days, giving you a breezy beach feeling, whether you are by the sea or elsewhere.
The top is knitted seamlessly from top to bottom in stockinette stitch - either worked straight or with an A-line, with more or less positive ease, and in the desired length, depending on personal preference. I-cord edges at the neckline and armholes are integrated, so no further finishing work is necessary except for sewing in the ends.
Heidi has knitted her two tops in a light and a dark version - the light one, in size 1 in Fragile without positive ease, the dark one, in size 2 in Greyhound with a more casual fit with approx. 3.5 in / 9 cm of positive ease.
Sizes: 1, (2, 3, 4, 5, 6).
Finished bust circumference of sweater:
33.5 (36.6 ; 39.8 ; 43.3 ;46.9 ; 50.8) inches / 85 (93, 101, 110, 119, 129) cm
Suggested positive ease 0 - 4“ (0 - 10 cm).
