About: Summer Nights Cami is simple to knit camisole, knitted bottom up with waist shaping in one piece. After finishing the body, front and back are separated and shaped with mirrored decreases to create smooth V neck. Braided cable is worked from the front straps and it is enough wide to cover the bra strap. This pattern is suitable for the beginner knitters and the one who want to try cables for the first time. In the pdf file are video instructions made specifically for this pattern, which can help you with decreases and braided cable.
Wet blocking after finishing the piece is necessary.
