About

I love to design pieces that are missing from my closet – and in this case, that was a classic summer knit tank top. While this is obviously Tunisian crochet and uses staple Tunisian crochet stitches, the feel of the tank, as well as the shape and detailing, are all inspired by beautiful knit tanks!

The details along the side of the top are carried through the decreases in the shaping, all the way up through the straps. The feel of the top is breezy and light. You’ll want to wear this top all the time, not only because it’s truly comfortable but also to show off all the gorgeous details you made by hand!
