Description from Knitty, Summer 2003:

As a cool tank for the beach, a thin and simple shell under a jacket, or a dazzling showcase for fun fashion yarn, this versatile pattern lets your own sense of creativity and fashion shine.

Simple and stylish, it is designed to take power away from the pattern and give it back to the knitter.

That means that you pick your own yarn [somewhere between DK and chunky will yield the most predictable results] and you come up with your own gauge.

If there is a particular yarn you have always wanted to showcase and were not sure how to do it, consider this quick project a must.
