LINED_LOOP_TOP is a classical striped ribbed tank top.
The top is worked from the top down in rib stitch. First, the shoulders are worked one at a time with increases for the neckline. The two front shoulder sections are joined to form the front section by casting on stitches between them. Then the front section is worked flat with increases towards the armhole.

The two back shoulders are worked one at a time with increases for the neckline, and then joined to form the back section. The back section is worked flat while increasing towards the armhole. The front and back sections are then joined and the body is worked in the round in rib and stripes.

Stitches for the neckband are picked up and worked in the round in rib, and finished with a tubular edge and bind-off. To finish, stitches are picked up around the armholes and finished with an i-cord edge.
