This summery top is cropped to fall just below the waistline, worked from the bottom up and featuring 2-color brioche for the body. Linen is the perfect fiber to add drape and air flow to Idalia, but the recommended yarn is far from the stiff linens we often think of, best reserved for housewares; it’s perfectly smooth against the skin for summer wearables!
