ASHLEY RAO HANDKNITS

An openwork mesh panel sculpts a daring sweetheart neckline in this sleeveless, raglan-shaped tank.  Applied I-cords help structure the armholes and collar, which finishes in a self-tie at the nape of the neck.  This breezy summer top is worked from the top down in a beautifully draping cotton/viscose/linen blend yarn.
