Cascade Tank Top is an elegant summer top with a closed back. The top is worked in a simple rib pattern with twisted knit stitches. The fine cable detail, beginning at the shoulders, creates a fabulous fit, as the increases grow out of each cable, making room for the chest. The edges are knitted as I-Cord and adds a nice finishing touch, as well as a good stability for the arm- and neck opening.
