Summer Session

**Construction** Summer Session is a V-neck tank worked from the top down. The back neck is cast on and shoulder shaping rows are worked before continuing to work flat to the arm opening depth. Left and right front shoulders are picked up and worked flat with shaping for the neckline and then for the armholes. Fronts and back are joined to work the body in the round. The tank features a lace motif worked from top to bottom on the front. Hem, armholes and neckline are finished with a 1x1 rib trim. **Selecting a Size** Summer Session is intended to be worn with 2–4" / 5–10 cm of positive ease.
