  • Cup size A
  • Cup size B - C

  • The bust measurement and the length of the top are individually adjusted to the wearer, so larger sizes are of course also possible.

    You can also decide whether you want to wear it as a tank top or as a halter top. There is also a
    button placket at the back for the perfect fit.




    Click here to go to the pattern:


    Required materials:
    • For cup size B - C and women's size 36/38, I used approx. 800 m of 4-ply yarn

    • Crochet hook size 3 + possibly 3.5

    At the beach, you need a bag—for your bikini, towel, sunscreen, and change for ice cream.

    How about this one?



    Knitted in thick cotton, it’s finished quickly; in bright colors, it gives off vacation vibes.

    Some people also go on vacation in the mountains. If you go hiking there, you absolutely need socks for your hiking boots. You can believe me, I know what I’m talking about when it comes to things like that.

    Here you’ll find a pattern for them.




    They’re almost too nice for hiking boots, but after all, you want to look good up on the summit too. If your tongue is hanging out, at least you’ll be wearing beautiful socks.
    These socks are knitted from 5-ply sock yarn in two colors. I would recommend the pattern more for experienced knitters; you should have basic knowledge of sock construction, and two-color knitting isn’t exactly easy either. Detailed knitting charts are included in the pattern.

    This shawl is very light—just a sheer touch to cover your shoulders. It’ll easily fit in your suitcase. It’s knitted lengthwise from sock yarn, with a delicate lace pattern along the bottom edge.
    The pattern is written out in full, and there’s also a knitting chart for the lace pattern.

Depending on which colors you use, these pieces of jewelry can look elegant (e.g., in black and white), cheerful and summery (colorful pastel shades), etc.
