Trellis Tank
Knitting Pattern for Tank Top with a unique neckline of zigzags
photo copyright Gerard Holzmann, 2019
The Trellis Tank uses line and shape to convey the impression of length, with a promise of texture at the top. It has a unique neckline with crochet facing and a zigzag edge. Stockinette stitch, reverse stockinette, and twisted knit ribbing on the yoke frame the zigzag neckline. Six body section outlined by faux seams give the body structure, and the slight A-line shape follows body contours. The yarn contains two natural fibers: cotton and hemp, combined with modal. The hemp will become softer with each washing, while the modal imparts a great drape.
The tank is worked from bottom to underarms in the round and then separated for Front and Back and worked back and forth.
Wear this alone or as a layered piece.
