A written pattern to make this simple tank top, that is guaranteed to become a wardrobe staple. Create the super cropped version to wear with all of your favourite dresses and the regular length for wearing with a simple tee or shirt with trousers or skirts. THis tank is super easy to make using an aran weight yarn and knitted up on 5mm needles.

This tank top is a neat fitting design that skims the body, it has a v neck neckline. 5 sizes are included, each size has ease to fit across two sizes, from a UK size 8-10 to a UK 18-20. To keep it as easy as possible to read, the instructions for the armhole and front neck shaping have been written separately as each size is subtly different.

The pattern includes a chart to complete a simple Argyle panel across the base of the top, ideally for the waist length version, I think it would also look great on the cropped version!

The subtle nod to vintage styling makes this a versatile addition to any Autumn wardrobe, it looks especially good with wide leg trousers or a maxi skirt. The super cropped version works really well over a dress or tunic of any length. The tank top continues to be a key trend so there is plenty of room in your wardrobe for lots of different versions. Have some fun with your colour choices and mix up the textures with your yarn choices.

The yarns I used to develop the pattern were: Rowan Kid Classic and Malabrigo Merino Aran.
