Whiteowlcrochetco. Moonstone Tank

---

The Moonstone tank is worked from the bottom up, starting with a traditional cast on. The bottom of the tank is made up of combinations of basic lacework, creating a delicate fabric that will keep your mind entertained as you knit.

You’ll work in rounds over the body then flat in rows over the bust, decreasing as you work towards the straps. The straps are made with a thick knit i-cord and attached using a three-needle bind off.

Instructions for the bust are split individually for each size for clarity and stitch counts are available for each row for progress keeping. Modifications are easily made to the length of the tank and the straps, although this will modify the required yardage.
