Camisole No. 11 by My Favourite Things
Warm weather calls for effortless, wearable knits—and Camisole No. 11 by My Favourite Things is the perfect piece to add to your handmade wardrobe this season.
This beautifully simple camisole is designed to be knit top down, making it easy to customize length and fit as you go. The design features a delicate combination of eyelets and garter ridges, creating subtle texture while keeping the knitting engaging yet relaxing. It’s the kind of project you can take anywhere—perfect for both newer knitters and those looking for a satisfying, straightforward make.
Yarn Recommendations for Summer Stitching
To complement this lightweight design, we recommend yarns that feel as good to wear as they are to knit.
Mode at Rowan Cotton DK is an excellent choice, offering a soft, breathable cotton base that creates a polished, everyday fabric—ideal for tanks and warm-weather garments.
For a lighter, more delicate fabric, try holding two strands of Summerlite 4ply by Rowan together. This approach creates a beautifully airy drape with a touch of structure, perfect for a refined summer look.
Both options are versatile and well-suited not only for camisoles, but also for tops, cardigans, wraps, and scarves—making them great additions to your seasonal yarn lineup.
A Go-To Piece for Summer
Camisole No. 11 is the kind of garment you’ll reach for again and again. Layer it under a cardigan on cooler mornings or wear it on its own during warm, sunny days. Its clean lines and thoughtful details make it easy to dress up or down, fitting seamlessly into any wardrobe.
