This is a great little tank top! For those of us that need a bit more coverage for the upper arms, there is an optional sleeve that can be made and it fits right in. In the pattern, I’ve given instructions for both styles - you choose the right one for you!

You will need: US #4 & 5 straight or circular needles, markers. 520(630,630) yds of a Cotton or Cotton blend for the tank top; add an additional 100 yds for the sleeves. Any other yarn that works up to the gauge of 6 sts = 1” over stockinette stitch on #5 needle. Final size is: Bust 33(38,42.5)”; Length 19(20,21)”
