PATTERN NOTES
Sand & Sky is the perfect tank for beating the heat whether you’re enjoying a day at the beach or exploring the desert. The A-line shape and drape of Bamboo Pop Sock add to the comfort of this piece. This top alternates stripes of self-shading Bamboo Pop Sock and the results are so fun. Choose your favorite colors and cast on!

This top is knit in the round from the bottom up. The front and back are separated at the underarms and worked flat. The shoulders are joined with a three-needle bind-off. Stitches are picked up around the neck and armholes for a ribbed edging.
