The Best Summer Knits and Crochets, From Hats to Cover-Ups

This might be one of the most comfortable sweaters we own, but it also looks great. It’s got a V neck with a flat collar that creates a super flattering silhouette. Plus, it hits just above the waist, so you can pair it with high-rise or low-rise bottoms easily. BRB, adding (another one) to cart. ($198, Buck Mason)

This one’s made from 100% organic cotton, comes in four different patterns, and has a wide collar that mimics the classic sailor look. It’s perfect for weekend getaways or chilly morning summer brunches with the crew. ($99, Arket)

The perfect everyday dress does exist. This one has an adjustable halter top and an A-line hem that makes it so easy to pair with jackets and sweaters come nighttime. It’s crocheted from organic, breathable cotton so you won’t overheat during the day. ($195, ME+EM)

All you’ll wanna do in this knitted tee is lie out at the park and eat in-season fruits. It’s got bright lines of color on a beige background, so it’ll pair with almost any bottom — we recommend a baggy pair of jean shorts with a platform sandal to complete the look. ($158, Anthropologie)

We’re obsessed with the details on this tuck stitch knit. It has a slim fit, with hand-crocheted frills on the trim, and comes in a marbled blue color that pairs really well with lighter shades. Enter your new go-to. ($178, Buck Mason)

This hat has a foldable design so you can take it with you wherever you go — the beach, the park, or a grocery run. It’s made from deadstock raffia and yarn to combat waste, and is water-resistant and washable. We love the fun color-blocking, but if you’re looking for something a little less bright, snag this option instead. ($55, Verloop)

Need we say more? This one will keep your sunscreen, beach read, and sunnies safe and in style. It’s got a chic square silhouette that’ll look great with your favorite summer outfits. If you’re looking for a more classic shape, this knit tote bag is big enough for your iPad, umbrella, notebook, and water bottle, and comes in nine different colors and patterns. ($136, Ssense)

Wear this one on its own or layer it on top of your breeziest linen button-up for that midsummer look. This one’s available in over 15 colors and patterns (we love the black cherry V-neck and pink strawberry options) and is machine washable. Score. ($23.99, Amazon)

It’s the must-have accessory of the season. This one comes in three different colors — a solid pink, blue striped, and yellow striped option — and has the brand’s name embroidered on the front. Use it to tie your hair back or tie it around your neck to channel your inner cowgirl. ($41, Ssense)

Knock knock, your new cover-up’s calling. This sheer skirt will show off your bikini and keep you boardwalk-ready at all times. It’s a low-rise pull-on design with scalloped lace and tiny jewels sprinkled throughout — basically a mermaid’s dream. ($99.95, Free People)
