This is a fairisle tank top perfect for layering. This works really well with a superwash DK as the gentle stretching of the merino relaxes the fairisle really well.

This pattern is best worked in two semi solid colours rather than a highly contrasting hand dyed or the pattern will be lost.

It is knitted in the round up until the armholes and is the knit flat for the back and front and seamed at the shoulders.

Short row shaping is used to create a smooth seam on the shoulders.

Sizes go up to a 60inch bust.
