Nightfall Tank Top

Cream and black squares alternate like a chessboard at the end of a long game, each one holding a single flower turned around a dark eye. The checkerboard gives it order; the flowers, purple, red-orange and pale, give it warmth. Orange-red runs the V-neck and straps, purple lines the sides, and a row of teal and orange dots closes the hem like a final flourish. The crochet is dense and tidy, the kind that earns a second look. Layer this top over a tee or wear it on its own on a warm day. An organic cotton blend, made square by square by Anatolian hands.
