Pattern Description from Vogue Knitting, Spring/Summer 2009: “Seeing stars? that the point of Patrick’s silken tank, knit in Plymouth Yarn’s ‘Ecco Silk.’ The focal star motif is knit from the center out and acts as the top’s anchor; all the other pieces - including the ribbed straps and underarm bands - are added later. The garment’s back has a delicately puckered scooped neckline.”

“Standard-fitting camisole with center star medallion and ribbed extension straps.”
