Some time ago, designer Joji Locatelli set out to create a top that you would want to wear every day, with any outfit, in any colour… This is how Marinera (the Spanish word for a female sailor) came to be. It is inspired by the timeless simplicity of nautical stripes and summer light. Worked seamlessly from the top down, the back and front are knitted flat from the shoulders to the underarms before joining to work the body in the round. The construction makes it easy to try on as you go and customise the length to suit your style.
The kit includes the following colourways in the required quantities on Été from Les Garçons. The pattern is not included; it is available on Ravelry.
Colour 1 (1 to 3 skeins, 100 g): “Monument”
Colour 2 (1 to 3 skeins, 100 g): “Luxardo”
