This is such a fun top we just had to do some dancing during the photo shoot! I am sure it will become one of my favorite warm weather knits. Even though it is long it works up pretty fast on size 9 needles and straight forward stitches. Linen does not feel the best when working with it, but it gets so lovely when washed. This Shibui linen has absolutely wonderful drape as you can see from some of the pictures. That combines with a swing design leads to the perfect top!
