Yarn package for the Maia Summer Top by Bella Helms.

The lightweight, delicate Maia Top is perfect for summer. It is airy and light, with a fluid drape. The front and back feature different patterns and are cut identically, so you can wear it whichever way you like.

The pattern includes two options: a straight version and a version with a playful peplum. Our yarn package contains enough yarn for whichever version you choose.

The lace pattern is not too difficult, yet wonderfully delicate and airy. The vertical stripes create a lengthening effect and make the fit especially flattering. The button placket is purely decorative, so you do not have to worry about the buttons coming undone.

You knit your Maia Summer Top with the wonderfully summery Tynn Line yarn by Sandnes Garn. It is delicate and cooling on warm days.

Enjoy summer in your Maia Summer Top!
