Capri Striped Linen Top DK Knitting Pattern

Broad, beachy stripes! Perfect for relaxing!

This slip-over top in broad, beachy stripes using a DK weight linen or linen blend yarn. With a wider fit and modern boxy shape, Capri is simply designed, simply written, and simple to wear! Now let's talk fabric - next-to-the-skin softness, a smooth finish that's not sheer, and a cool drape. Choose closer tonal stripes, or go for a bigger contrast with nautical navy and white!
