Any pattern questions are welcome here

This is probably the design I’m the most excited about for a lot of reasons. First is, that it has this super simple and unique construction I worked on together in a wonderful and fun design collaboration with ITOyarn

To summ it up I’d say, the more simple it looks the more work is needed to get it work for all sizes. But it worked out very well at the end and it’s beginner friendly, too

Optional Hood and pockets included!

TANKE Top is worked seamlessly from the top down.
You start working the back for the length of the shoulder plus the length of the armhole. Then you pick up and CO sts to work the front for the length of the armhole. You join front and back to work the body in rounds to the optional pocket opening and down to the ribbing.
