Knitting kit for Elina Summer Top by Katrine Hannibal in Önling No 14
Elina summer top is a versatile and stylish summer top. The top can be worn in several ways: as a halterneck by tying the straps around the neck, with the straps fastened at the back using two buttons, or with crossed straps for a modern cross on the back. Add one or two bows for the finishing touch.
The top is worked in our soft summer yarn Önling No 14, made from 100% Tencel (TM), which is soft, shiny and has a beautiful drape. The yarn is made from 100% cellulose fibres, making it an ideal choice for the conscious consumer.
The knitting kit contains: Önling No 14 for the selected size and color and a digital pattern in english

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a knitting kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In some cases, however, you will not receive a pattern as part of your order:
If you buy a Yarn kit, you will only receive yarn for the design in question. Yarn kits are only sold for selected designs from external designers, where we do not have the right to sell the pattern. When a kit is sold without pattern, you can always see it in the header, which will say (excl pattern) in the header.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- For a select, few designs from PetiteKnit, we will add a printed pattern to the parcel - but for most PetiteKnit designs, you will not receive a pattern, as they are mainly sold as yarn kits (excl pattern). In these cases you will always be able to see it in the header, where it says (excl pattern).
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
