Maja Top from Mama Mink
Maja is an extremely useful summer top with wide shoulder straps and a good weight. Maja is knitted from the bottom up. The recesses for the shoulders and neck follow the pattern and give an elegant and fully molded look. The neckline is slightly deeper at the front than at the back, so if you prefer a less deep neckline, the top can simply be worn the other way around.

In the colder months, the top can also be used as a slipover together with, for example, a shirt.
