You can use any yarn and any gauge for this pattern. However, I do provide suggested stitch counts based on the below gauge if you do not want a custom-sized garment:

Gauge: 20 stitches and 31 rows to 4” (10 cm)

Size notation: XS (S, M, L, XL) (2X, 3X, 4X, 5X)

Actual bust measurements:

28” (32”, 36”, 40”, 44”) (48”, 52”, 56”, 60”)

71 cm (81, 91, 101, 111) (122, 132, 142, 152)

Ease: 4” (10 cm) will be ADDED to each of the sizes above for a finished piece with a bust measurement 4” (10 cm) larger than the actual bust measurement indicated.

Approximate yardage needed for a cropped length tank: 300 (325, 365, 400, 440) (475, 510, 550, 590)

Note: Because this pattern is fully customizable to your gauge and length preferences, I HIGHLY recommend budgeting in some extra yardage. Every yarn will work up differently, and there is a chance that your yardage needs will differ from mine. Additionally, if you choose to make your top longer than recommended, you will need more yardage to do so.

This pattern can also be purchased from Etsy.
