Melon Fair Tank-Vest
Sexy, open work crochet pattern is an original design. In yummy melon bright green soft acrylic yarn. Soft and fuzzy, yet open and cool---just right for spring and summer. May be made in a variety of yarns or threads by using an H hook and fingering or sport weight yarn. Stitches used are ch, tr, dc, and sc.

Around 350-500 yds of #4 Worsted Weight yarn (I used Hobby Lobby’s “Soft Secret” in Lime: 370 yds)

2X, 3X: 3 skeins
Size K (10.5 mm) hook
Fabric Glue (I use Crafter’s Pick)

It moves easily from day to evening wear. The soft fiber adds just enough warmth against a breezy night or the air conditioning of a car, restaurant or club.
