]]> I found this while shopping around at Etsy today. It’s the amate top, from the zelaya shop. It’s a raw edge top made of stretchy organic cotton knit, it has a scoop neckline with a low back that’s decorated with an interwoven leaf pattern.  It’s available in XS, S, M, or L in black, brown, or natural.
