August’s top is airy and light, inspired by summer fruits and refreshing drinks on the shady porch. It’s perfect for warm summer days wherever you live. The pattern is paired with a collection of infused green summer teas featuring herbal and fruit pairings that are as refreshing as this top.

Mentha’s name is derived from the latin name for mint. It uses lace and cables detailing in the side shaping. This top is knit from the bottom up with cap sleeves formed by binding off and casting on below the yoke.
