Pattern
This lightweight top or beach coverup is worked in two pieces. The way the fabric drapes means you have no shaping for the neckline. The front and back are exactly alike, which means it is reversible — two tops in one.  Each is worked flat from the hem to the shoulders. The sides are then sewn using the invisible garter stitch seam, and the shoulders are finished with the three-needle bind off. It couldn’t be much simpler or more comfortable.

Pattern
On those balmy summer nights when there’s a chill in the air, a light carefree sweater always feels just right. And this simple, yet stylish design looks great whether hanging out on the beach in a pair of shorts or having dinner al fresco. Knitted to create a loose drape, this pattern knits up fast and easy. The rows of purl stitches are spaced to evoke waves on the beach and the garter stitch trim provides a tidy finishing touch. Knitted top down with no seams, your knitting will be as carefree as the look of this finished sweater.

Yarn
Lana Knit’s allhemp6 – DK – 100% hemp, eco-yarn

Long line flax is wet spun for vibrant color, outstanding drape, longevity and colorfast with ultimate softness and sheen. Cool in the summer and warm in the winter. And hemp is stronger and softer than cotton, will last twice as long and will not mildew. It’s a sustainable crop and an acre of hemp will produce as much fiber as 2 to 3 acres of cotton. While pesticides and herbicides are used in the production of other fibers, hemp requires none. Hand or machine wash, lay flat to dry or tumble dry.

Trendsetter’s Scarlett, DK, 100% Egyptian Cotton

This highest-quality cotton yarn is designed to be extra smooth as well as soft. A high twist, multi-ply washable yarn with loft and stretch, so it’s not only easy to care for, but easy to knit with as well.

A poncho that slips over your head and drapes over your arms is a carefree idea for a spring and summer cover-up top. So, here’s a lady’s top that has the option to be worn open poncho-style or closed with laces up the sides. The pattern is worked from the bottom front up to the boatneck-style opening and down to the back hem. There is no shaping, so it is easy and relaxing to knit. And simple openwork adds detail to provide a little fun. Enjoy.

Pattern
The Ryan pattern produces a classic tank top that combines stockinette with narrow stripes of garter. It is a simple stitch repeat that encourages meditative knitting. This pattern is worked from the bottom up in the round, then the front and back are separated for shaping the yoke and rejoined at the shoulders. Finally, stitches are picked up for the neck and armhole trim.

Yarn
Brown Sheep’s Cotton Fine, Fingering, 80% Pima Cotton, 20% Resilient Merino Wool, Eco-yarn

Cotton Fine is more than fine cotton. A bit of the softest merino wool is added. Cotton makes it cooler, but the wool gives more resilience to the yarn, making it wonderful to work with. And the combination feels equally wonderful on your skin. Like all Brown Sheep yarns it is dyed in their proprietary process, which allows for over 90% of the water to be recycled. Cotton Fine is almost an essential in anyone’s yarn stash because it is great for summer tops, wraps and sweaters. As well as baby blankets and children’s clothing.
