This crochet pattern is for a men’s tank top in a lace and mesh finish. The pattern uses diagrams to show you how to make the two contrasting elements and construct a shirt that suits you. There are multiple options for size and shaping, all based on the number of repeats you make.

You must be able to read crochet charts to use this pattern.

The pattern was designed using Sirdar Cotton DK, which is smooth to the touch. The garment is made in two pieces, with side seams and joins at the shoulders.

Sizing is based on repeats of the lace design, which gives the width, and repeats of the lace and mesh stripe, which gives the length. These are not standard sizes so it is suggested you find a size larger than your actual chest size.

All widths can be made in all lengths
