Yes – we really did call it that…!

A simple, box shaped tank top, this pattern is knit up in the round and finished with a pick up and knit neckline and sleeve ribs. You have the option of three lengths, although you can go even longer if you’d prefer.

Suitable for intermediate knitters or confident beginners who’re ready to learn some more techniques. The pattern covers sizes UK 8-28. It is designed to be quite close fitting so size up if you’d like it looser.

We’ve shown how this vest can look with one main base colour and colour pop ribs, or knit up in random stripes. Using our Limited Edition Subscription box colours, we’ve used all five colours to create a retro feel top. The pattern talks you through how to create a basic striped version, or a random version like this one.
