PATTERN NOTES
This tank is knit from the top down and features a square neck. Increases create gathers in the fabric. The Front and Back are worked flat, separately, and then joined at the underarms to work in the round. Stitches for the straps are picked up from around the armhole and then additional stitches are cast on to work the straps in the round. The Garter Slip pattern is both written and charted for your convenience.

In this pattern, work all slipped stitches purlwise.

This tank is intended to fit with 10-14” of positive ease due to the drape from the gathers in the fabric. For the best fit, choose the size with a hem circumference that is 10-14” larger than your chest circumference.
