Pattern Description from Vogue Knitting, Spring/Summer 2009: “Don’t let the formal finesse fool you: Gaughan’s bling-edged tank top is as casual a knit as you could ask for. The body, in Berroco’s ‘Mica,’ is worked upward, the distinct flounce shaped with a simple double decrease up the waist ribbing. The trim around the scoop neck and armholes is achieved by holding three strands of sequined ‘Mirror FX’ with the ‘Mica.’

“Close-fitting, sleeveless top with mitered flounce, ribbed waist and round neck.”
