Trulli Top

The Trulli Top is inspired by the Trulli houses of Puglia and their distinctive, pointed roofs. The design reflects their simple, elegant lines. It can be worn casually with shorts in summer or paired with a more elegant skirt for work. The top is designed to be worn close to the body, though you can choose to add a little positive ease for a more relaxed fit. The top is worked top down and is based on two simple lace pattern repeats. It is a great project for knitters who would like to start working with lace, as the repeats are easy to memorise and quickly become intuitive.
