Wisp is a simple tank worked from the bottom up. The body is worked in the round and then the front and back are split and worked flat. The front and back are shaped the same with a low V neckline. Mine is knit using 2 strands of Oh Dang from The Farmer’s Daughte Fibers but can be made in any fiber, just make sure you can get gauge and like the fabric you create! I wear mine both alone on warm days and layered over dresses when the weather is cooler.

I love this tank as a wardrobe staple. Many of the testers have already made 2 versions of this top- it is so quick, easy and versatile! Please note that yardage usage varied quite widely depending on the fiber used. The yardage provided reflects the highest amount used by testers plus a little extra for swatching, so it is likely you will need a bit less than quoted here.
