    About

    An easy-wear summer top using a cotton/silk blend. Although I loved how this looked in the pattern photo, I made a few modifications based on others notes (from Ravelry): Added Short Rows to prevent bra showing at armhole, and omitted the holes in the charted pattern-section in upper half. I also sewed cotton Bias Tape to the inside of the straps, underarm and neckline edges to prevent stretching. Would definitely make this again, with these mods :)
