This topper is knit in a cotton/acrylic yarn because the versatile styling makes it wearable year round. For warm weather the open mesh stitch is comfortable and cool over a matching or contrasting color camisole. For cooler weather wear it over a turtleneck. The Textured Mesh Topper features long sleeves and dropped shoulders. Eliminate the sleeves and you have a great summer top. You could also lengthen it into a tunic or beach cover-up. Shaping is not difficult, it is all rectangles and triangles.
