Honeymoon Cami #2

Pattern: Honeymoon Cami, by Mind of Winter Julia, for Knitty.com
Yarn: Dale of Norway Svale, four skeins
Needles: size 6 circs? I think

Pretty, summery honeymoon cami.
And here's what happens when we try to take a pic in the mirror.

So, for me, this tank was all about yarn choice. I made the first one with a fairly heavy cotton yarn, and it just wasn't right for the project. It didn't drape well and it sort of sat on me like a suit of armor. This yarn (Dale of Norway Svale) is a silk blend and soft and swirly and yummy and drapey and clingy and PERFECT. Yay. I will wear the CRAP out of this tank top this summer.
