The Double Hemingway Tank is a classic and simple tank with a rolled hem feature and no seaming! It is worked from the bottom up in the round until the front and back are split at the underarm. The front and back are worked flat and the straps are then joined using the three needle bind off. Collar stitches are picked up, joined in the round, and an i-cord bind off is worked.
