The Ridge Tank Button Down ~

The Ridge Tank Button Down is made with a
fingering weight yarn, creating a light and airy
fabric with lovely drape. It is knitted seamlessly
from the top down, allowing for easy adjustments
to its length. It is knit in a simple textured pattern
alternating knit and purl rows, forming the
horizontal ridges and adding visual interest without
being overly complex. A clean, buttoned placket
runs down the front adding a touch of classic style.
It has a boxy fit with approximately 1-3” 2.5-8cm of positive ease. The model in the pictures has a bust circumference of 35.5” 90cm and is wearing a size M.
