Mona is a second-skin top ideal for layering or to be worn on its own.It’s a basic piece with eight possible variations : its round neckline can be replaced by a crew neck or a bare back, and the sleeves are short or long.
You can pick any sort of knit fabric to sew your Mona top. We recommend thin and soft knits with a second-skin quality (such as cotton and viscose jerseys) and interlocks which are more comfortable to process as the ends don’t roll in after stretching.
Our Mona tops were made from various scraps of cotton and viscose jerseys.
