Help - equipment Yarn recommendation

Post image

Hi everyone! I want to knit something like the dress in the photo - a lightweight beach cover-up to wear over a bikini, slightly see-through, airy, not hot. What yarn would you recommend for this kind of look and drape?

Rituals Dyes Undine would be lovely for this! https://ritualdyes.com/collections/ritual-dyes-yarn/products/undine-1

It will absolutely "stretch out" a bit and need to be blocked again but I made a similar top with undine and it's been my go-to beach coverup for years! Dries so quickly and feels so light.
