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.
