Summer Ripples

Light and airy like a summer breeze rippling the surface of your lemon-limeade, this curve-caressing summer tanktop is knit slightly looser than recommended gauge in a breathable cotton blend for maximum summer comfort. It has an open back, but is carefully made to conceal your favorite comfy tshirt bra. The simplicity of design makes this top a perfect choice for a beginner project or TV knitting, but details like seed stitch edging and all-over striping stave off boredom. With minimal finishing and a loose gauge, it’s also good for last minute gifting or instant gratification knitting – intermediate knitters can finish it in a crafting weekend. If you like, knit the straps longer and turn it into a cross-back top with a little extra flutter in the neckline and back.
