Phringe Tank
The Phringe Tank takes advantage of the sideways garter stitch construction to create a playful
striped tank with a fringed hem–all while avoiding purling! Increases and decreases are done
using bind offs and Cable Cast Ons. The front and back are worked separately, then seamed
along the sides and shoulders to provide structure and support for the garment. The neckline
and armhole stitches are picked up and worked with a simple but polished finish. Instructions for
a “random” repeat in 4, 5, or 6 colors are provided. The intentional misspelling of Phringe is a Philly Jawn.
See pattern photos for yarn estimate chart. Because this garment utilizes a multi-color palette, total yarn requirements shift based on how
many colors you use. These calculations account strictly for the individual 185-yard skein limits
of each separate color. In my 6-color Size 4 Version A sample (using 2 skeins of the dark blue and 1 skein
each of each of the other colors), I had plenty of leftover yarn overall, but a few colors came
close—I finished with only 4 grams each of pink and white, while the other three contrast colors
had 15 grams remaining.Check the charts on the last 2 photos on the pattern page for a detailed breakdown of
yarn estimates.
Don’t print the whole pattern! Each size has its own table of shaping instructions for the front and back-so just print your own size’s tables, plus the general instructions on pages 6-9.
In celebration of my birthday month and this being my first pattern, I’m offering the Phringe Tank for free until August 31, 2026, with the code FIRSTBIRTHDAY
Enjoy!
