Débardeur Pretoria
The Débardeur Pretoria is the knit of the warmer months: a sleeveless top in light, fluffy mohair, with a ribbed round neck and a soft, generous fabric. Elegant and easy to wear, it sits just as well over white jeans as over a linen shirt.
Knitted with three strands of Pretoria quality, in a plain colour. Exclusive Baudilaine design: the printed instructions are given to you with the yarn.
This design can also be knitted with Durban yarn, same instructions and quantities.
A sleeveless top in mohair, soft and luminous
With its airy fabric and its characteristic halo of fibres, the Débardeur Pretoria captures all the charm of a hand-knitted piece. Its sleeveless cut with round neck and the delicate relief of the ribbing make it at once a soft, structured and decidedly elegant piece. To wear close to the body over a shirt, or on its own in fine weather for a very natural, city look.
The Pretoria yarn
Knitted with three strands of Pretoria quality, this top reveals all the lightness and softness of mohair. The yarn offers an enveloping fluffiness and a plump fabric, without ever weighing the piece down. Available in many plain colours, to choose as you wish: here, a powdery sky blue full of delicacy.
