Striped summer top by Önling, knitting pattern
A cool summer top made in our Everyday Yarn Önling No 12. Striped and naughty like an alley cat on a summer night. Perfect for warm summer nights, and with naughty details - two zippers at the sides, and cute ragged edges around the sleeves and neckline. The top is knitted top-down and in the round. At the yoke, the shape is created by increases in the collar. Then the work is divided to knit sleeves and body separately. Near the bottom the front piece is split in two, to create slits for zippers at each side. End by knitting the cute, ragged edge at the sleeves.

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. Often it is enough to hang your woolen sweater / garment outside in the humid weather or bring it with you into the bathroom, when you take a long, hot shower - the steam will often be enough to freshen it up it and remove any unwanted odors.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Everyday Kit
Neither Önling No 12 nor No 13, is pre-washed when you receive it on cones. You get the best result if you soak your finished knitted garment in lukewarm water for approx. 2 hours. Then wash the garment as you would otherwise with washing detergent for wool, either by hand or on a wool program in your washing machine. Dry it by laying it flat.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Silk kit
As the Silk Kit from Önling contains 3 different qualities (linen, wool and silk), we recommend that you always wash your silk sweater / garment by hand, to avoid it changing shape or appearance during wash. The three qualities will react differently to water, temperatures, etc. Önling can not take responsibility for the result if you wash your silk sweater in the washing machine. Your garment made from the silk kit should NOT be spun or tumble dried. Instead, dry it by laying it flat.
