Summer is for cotton knitting. This tank knits up quick and is a great styling piece for warmer weather. Or knit it in wool and layer it!

Construction
Summer knitting in cotton! Beginning at the back neck, the tank is knit top down. This is a great style for perfecting brioche as it is knit partially flat and partially in the round. The neck and shoulders are narrow and the underarm is a bit dropped for a breezy summer fit. All trims are knit on for minimal finishing. All DEGEN garments are designed to be adapted so I recommend to block and fit as you go and think about what bottoms / dresses you might want to style with so you can achieve the perfect length.
