This is a stretchy tube top with sizes to fit bust 24-40. Yarn with a lycra or other stretchy fiber is used. This may be run-along yarn or stretch spun into the yarn. Depending on how and whether straps are added, this can be a summer top, winter warmth layer or yoga bra.

Knitting doesn’t get any easier than this very form-fitting top. The great stretch and memory of the fabric are achieved by running a thin strand of cotton/lycra yarn along with a strand of Mary Lue’s Harmony. Treat the two as a single yarn. Sizes range from little to big girls and medium sized ladies.

Without the decorative trim, this can be an under-layer for a bit of extra warmth. Or a pair of I-cords may be sewn on as shoulder straps for a yoga bra.
