A long, slightly retro stockinette stitch tank/vest in a simple and elegant shape will find a place in every knitter’s wardrobe, and makes a great first garment for new knitters. Strong vertical lines with visible waist shaping flatter the figure. It whips up quickly in Valley Yarns’ soft and textured organic cotton, Montague. This tank is worked in two identical pieces and then seamed for structure. It is sleeveless, with narrow ribbing at the armholes and the scoop neck and a wide, dramatic ribbed hem at the hip. The long, graceful shape is accentuated with decreases positioned toward the center on each side, to skim and flatter the figure.
