The May Be Lily Tank is a camisole with a buttonband and a V neck on the front. It’s knitted with a lovely lace stitch that bring all it’s beauty to this top. The buttonholes are bridles that are made in crochet once the top is finished (this technique is explained in a step by step video, accessible to beginner in crochet).
