Warm weather knitting calls for lightweight fibers, timeless silhouettes, and projects you’ll actually wear all summer long. Two of our favorite garments this season are the Soho Top and Home Camisole by Caidree — elegant wardrobe staples that are as enjoyable to knit as they are to wear.
Soho Top by Caidree
The Soho Top is a classic sleeveless summer top featuring a sophisticated boatneck neckline and clean, modern lines. Worked from the top down, this pattern makes it easy to customize the body length for your perfect fit.
Simple garter stitch throughout creates beautiful texture while keeping the knitting approachable and relaxing. The garment is worked both flat and in the round, with polished i-cord edging framing the neckline, waist, and armholes. Decorative side “seams” add a thoughtful finishing detail that elevates the entire design.
Designed to be worn with 0–7 cm (0–3”) of positive ease, the Soho Top is effortlessly wearable layered over linen pants, skirts, or your favorite summer denim.
Home Camisole by Caidree
The Home Camisole is the ultimate everyday luxury piece. Originally designed in cashmere yarn, this camisole is incredibly soft and comfortable worn directly against the skin — perfect for layering or wearing on its own during warmer months.
Like the Soho Top, it is constructed from the top down, allowing easy body length adjustments. Smooth stockinette stitch keeps the fabric sleek and timeless, while delicate i-cord edging along the v-neck, armholes, and waist gives the camisole a refined finish.
Designed with 0–5 cm (0–2”) of positive ease, the Home Camisole is a versatile wardrobe essential you’ll reach for again and again.
