Ten years ago, my house in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, flooded in an unnamed freak storm, and it was awful. Lost almost everything, AND I was 10 weeks pregnant. The knitting community stepped up in a big way to help out- so many people bought patterns, many of you mailed me yarn to replace what I lost, yarn dyers made special colorways for me- it was all amazing. To say thank you, I’d like to offer 50% off all of my patterns, from now until Wednesday, August 19th. Use coupon code FLOOD. I love knitters (and crocheters!). You’re all incredible.

This tank top looks simple from the front, but the back is where the excitement is — it features an inset triangular lace panel! You won’t have to worry about being too warm in this tank top!

This tank top is worked from the top down, beginning with the front straps. The lace panel is worked separately and sewn into the back. If you choose to lengthen or shorten the tank top, add or subtract an equal amount of length from the initial work-even portion of the lace panel.
