Crispus top is a short top with just one strap, made from cosy and soft bouclé. It is suitable for parties as well as for everyday wear when you want to dress up in knitwear. You can wear it with a shirt or a turtleneck jumper underneath, or just as it is, next to the skin.
And - crispus means “curls” in Latin. Doesn’t that fit well?
The top has a “raw” edge at the sides, which adds a nice detail to the otherwise simple design. The Crispus top is the same on the front and back and is knitted in one piece.
