July is the time of relaxing, of playing in the shade, of hot vacations at the beach or cool escapes to the mountains. There are so many national holidays in July – regardless of your nationality – and, at least in the Northern Hemisphere, a time when kids are out of school and everyone just wants to take a break from work.

This tank top is knit in the lovely fingering-weight Baah La Jolla yarn, making it light and airy for the hottest weather. The central cable stitch uses dropped stitches to further play with the idea of airy solidity.

Knit in the round from the bottom up, it has a hint of an A-line shape that gives you a bit more room in the hips, some light waist shaping, and a smidge of negative ease in the bust.

All lengths given are blocked. Please take time to check your gauge to ensure a good fit.
