Aurora camisole

Aurora is the Latin word for dawn. She was the goddess of dawn in Roman mythology and Latin poetry. The Aurora camisole is knitted seamlessly from the top down. It features minimalist lace patterns on both the front and back pieces, which join at the middle of the neck. The camisole begins with the front and back triangles, which are joined at the underarm. The body is knitted in stockinette stitch in the round, and the hem is folded double for a neat, finished look. The straps are worked as i-cords and their length is adjustable. The Aurora camisole is best suited for cotton, viscose, silk or linen blend yarns that have a lot of drape. I recommend choosing solid or slightly tonal colorways.
