Helle Top

€6.90

This minimal, long top is all about the movement of the pleats with a simple striping being the focal point. Helle is worked sideways starting with the front and continuing with the back. Reverse Stockinette stitch is worked on the neck and sleeve openings while a bit of ribbing keeps the hem from curling.
