“Live in the sunshine, swim in the sea, drink the wild air…”
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

This pattern can be found in issue one of Nomadic Knits, which is available to purchase as a digital download through our website or Ravelry (click the e-book link above).

Deep Summer is knit bottom-up, in four pieces, then seamed together, using Knit One Crochet Too’s Daisy, an ideal blend of linen, silk, and hemp. Daisy holds its shape well, allowing for the raw, delicate bind off along the neck edge, without a tendency to curl.
