Our Beach Bum Cover-Up is a relaxed tunic that will take you from the beach or pool to BBQs and evenings out. Wear it over a bathing suit or wear it over leggings and cami as a relaxed, casual outfit.
Our recommended yarn is Erika Knight Gossypium Cotton Tweed, so you can wash it when you need to. The model is in the old Gossypium Cotton in Sea Fret and a size 41".
Our Row House Tutorial Design integrates our skills videos via hotlinks in the PDF to teach you a lace mesh stitch, as well as neckline shaping. It's a great project if you're comfortable knitting and purling, and you're ready to learn more.
