This delightful top by Seams to Streams uses a combination of knit and sheer or silky fabric to create a faux layered look with a delicate trim and a knit band across the front.

With options for short or 3/4-length sleeves, the Sheer Delight Top can be adapted to any season. Use a sweater-like knit and 3/4-length sleeves
for fall or winter, or super light knit and short sleeves for the warmer seasons. Alternate hemming instructions are provided allowing for different looks and levels of difficulty.
