Ondine Tank
Introducing Garden Row: A collection of three refined knits for city wandering and quiet days in bloom. Designs include: Folk Garden Sweater, Ondine Tank & Saltridge Sweater. Purchase the collection for £18 (automatic discount when all three are purchased together).
The Ondine Tank is a versatile, multi-season piece that effortlessly balances simplicity and elegance. Knit in DK weight yarn created by holding two finer strands together, it creates a subtly marled fabric that adds depth and texture. The timeless tank silhouette is designed for easy wear—perfect on its own in warmer weather or layered over a tee or shirt for a chic, casual look. A vertical band of delicate lace graces the front, offering a feminine touch that elevates the design while remaining approachable for knitters new to lace.
