The Wander Tank Top Sweater is the perfect transition piece to go from Spring to Summer!

This pattern uses the single crochet mesh stitch in vertical rows to create an open, textured look. The top is made in two identical panels that are seamed together and an easy Fphdc/Bphdc ribbing is then added at the neck, arms, and bottom edge.

The Wander crochet tank top is written for 5 sizes: S (M, L, XL, 2XL) and is rated as an intermediate level project. When I set out to design this pattern, I knew I wanted to play around with the idea of mashing up a sweater with a tank top. I wanted it to have the cozy look of a sweater, but also the warm-weather wearability of a tank top. My solution? Give it the chunky textured ribbing of your favorite winter sweater, but with the lightweight, drape-y-ness of an open mesh stitch. I think it works!
