Kala Crop Top
Kala Crop Top by Pip & Pin Collective | Kala is a sweet cropped top that features a boat-neck lace neckline and form-flattering shaping at the waist. The cropped length makes it perfect for layering over dresses and tunics, or for wearing with high-waisted skirts and pants. A very versatile piece, Kala can be made with different amounts of ease depending on the style you're looking to create. Knitting it with little to no positive ease and adding the optional elastic waist will create a more polished, vintage look, while more positive ease gives it a modern and casual feel. Choose between two sleeve options to completely customize your tee. Kala is knit seamlessly from the top down and in the round using fingering weight yarn.
