The Boardwalk Top is made for the shore. Knit in a lightweight yarn, the openwork lattice stitch is airy enough to wear all summer over a tank top or as a beach coverup. The stitch motif is inspired by the way the slats of the boardwalk create a geometric pattern of unexpected beauty. Videos of basic lattice knitting techniques can be found online here.

Knit in a simple rectangle, after blocking and seaming, the lightweight fabric will curve to fit the shape of your body when worn. You can also find the same stitch in the Boardwalk Wrap.
