Space Tank by Heidi Kirrmaier (F&F)
- Description
The Space Tank by Heidi Kirrmaier is simple in appearance, but features neatly placed increases on the front and back, and decreases on the shoulders, which make it a little bit different than your basic tank top!
It is knit from the top down, in one piece. You begin with a provisional cast on, and then a little yoke is knit in the round with increases and decreases, before you divide it into shoulder, front, and back sections. After the back and front pieces are knit flat, the body is knit in the round. At the end, the neckline and armholes are finished with i-cords.
The pattern includes video links to help guide you through the techniques, making it approachable even if some of them are new to you.
Our Mona knit her version in Fleece & Flax, our endlessly versatile fingering weight blend of BFL and linen. The result is light, breathable, and easy to wear - perfect for layering through the warmer months.
