Tank No 2 Vest
Tank No. 2(Vest) is the second finished piece of the Tank series. It continues the pattern of this series,
combining mohair and loop yarn to accentuate the looped texture through specific stitching techniques. The
design incorporates a double-layer as transition and features a wide ruffled edge that adds a dynamic flow to
the vest, making it perfect for early autumn layering over basic tops.
The vest is knitted seamlessly from top to bottom. The knitting sequence is as follows: right front piece - right
back piece - connect front and back pieces, left front piece - left back piece - connect front and back pieces,
join the left and right sections to continue knitting in the round, and finally, knit the ruffled edge.
