Heatwave - a handknitting pattern
knitmodern
This is a pattern for handknitting.
Pair this tank with a low back camisole or show off a favourite strappy yoga bra and make the most of the summer and festival season!
This top is worked from the top down, starting with the straps which have a few optional short rows at the beginning which give a little slope to the shoulder. It is then joined at the underarm and worked in the round for the body.
There are choices for:
-The armholes: low or high (for more bra coverage).
-The shoulder straps: They can be made seamless, starting from a provisional cast-on, or they can be started with a long-tail cast-on and seamed together later
This pattern works well with non-wool summer yarns which are drapey at the given gauge (18st x 28rows = 4" / 10cm sq).
The version shown in the photos has: seamless shoulder straps with no short rows and the lower, more open underarm. It was knit in Seduce, 4435 (Chana Dal), and is also shown in Seduce Colors 4471 (black and white mix)
