Iris is the perfect camisole your wardrobe needed. Easy to wear with its wide straps that hide the bra well, it is a piece that will accompany you in all seasons. In summer, wear it alone with bare shoulders. In winter, wear it under a jacket or shirt.
This piece is knitted from the top down, seamless. The neckline and armholes are professionally finished with folded hems. The camisole is knitted entirely in a simple broken rib stitch.
Iris is knitted with a "fingering" weight yarn. I recommend a merino yarn which will give the garment good elasticity, while being very breathable.
