Super Tank
This comet came crashing into the earth. BAM! Total devastation. No celebrities, no cable TV, no water! It hasn’t rained in 11 years. Now, 20 people gotta squeeze into the same bathtub. So it ain’t all bad.

To keep us in knitwear for the summer, this pattern is only 1.99 for a limited time! Share your finished Super Tank with us in the bunnymuff group!
This is a pattern for tank top worked from the under-bust to the straps and then, rejoining yarn, worked from the under-bust to the bottom edge. A slight A-line to the body is created by increasing needles size.
The bust and body are worked in the round and may be easily adjusted for a personal fit. The straps are worked (flat) and joined (at top of shoulder) with a Kitchener’s Stitch graft.
The changes between stripes include one round of a knit/slip st patterning.
Once the main body and straps are complete, sts are picked up for the neckline and armhole edges. A simple Garter St edge is worked before binding off.
