Timeless and classic, the Millcreek Tank features a beautiful and simple ribbed pattern, with thoughtfully placed shaping details. You can wear this tank on it’s own, as a vest, or paired with the Millcreek Cardigan.

NOTES: The garment is worked flat, in pieces, from the bottom up. The neckline, armholes, and shoulders are shaped using decreases. The neckline extensions are seamed together using the 3-Needle Bind Off Method, the shoulders are sewn together, and neckline extensions are sewn to the back neck. The edges of the neckline are finished as you knit with an I-cord edging, and stitches are picked up and bound off around each armhole to create a clean edge.
