Completely reversible, this sleeveless top can change to suit your mood. One side is knit in stockinette stitch while the other is knit in a diamond lace pattern. To finish it off simply, the neckline and hem are knit in garter stitch. The whole top is knit in one piece with stitches being bound off and then cast on to create the neck opening and then the side seams are stitched together. This top is perfect for those luxury silk and linen yarns you dream about using and will be the perfect addition to your summer wardrobe.
