Strike a pose with Shibui Knits Athens, a classic tank with clean A-line shaping knit in Reed. Seed stitch anchors the hem, while a scoop neck frames the face in this fresh yet timeless top. Shibui Knits Reed is a smooth, 100% linen yarn in fingering weight with a chainette construction that allows your knitting to flow easily across your needles. Linen is breathable and cool, gets softer with each hand-washing, and is an excellent fiber for summer garments.
