The Golden Days Tank is the perfect summer garment that’s not only a quick & fun make, but can be worn in multiple ways! It’s essentially 2-tops-in-1. You can wear it knotted in the front or the back - (I can’t decide which is my favorite!) This tank features a gorgeous wavy ripple stitch and nothing else (besides some single crochet on the straps). It will be a dream to stitch by the pool or beach this summer!

This is an intermediate garment pattern (written in US crochet terms) that uses #3 light/dk weight yarn (I used Lion Brand Truboo) and a size US Size G-6 (4mm) crochet hook (or size needed to get gauge).

Features a customizable fit that can be worn knotted in the front or in the back. The Golden Days Tank has a simple construction as well - crocheting one long piece like a scarf that’s then tied around your body.
