Loui top

Loui Top is a simple tank top that can be styled in two different ways – either with the round neckline or the straight neckline at the front. It is knitted from the top down using one strand of Bamboo from MYO.

The top is simple with a garter stitch detail along all the edges. The garter stitch edges are worked as you go, so you will not have to pick up stitches for the edges – the top is completely finished once you bind off at the hem.
