A stylish striped tank top that’s set to become your new favorite piece in your handmade wardrobe!

Practical and oh-so-comfy, this versatile top pairs perfectly with everything from shorts and jeans to long skirts.

Skill Level: Intermediate
(Knowledge of basic stitches and techniques such as color changes, weaving the yarn tails and decreases)

SUPPLIES NEEDED:

  • a 3.5 mm crochet hook
  • scissors
  • a tapestry needle
  • tape measure
  • stitch markers
  • Fine yarn in 2 different colours: I’m using Atlantica from one of my absolute favourite sustainable yarn brand Hoooked. I would say it’s in between sport and DK yarn. It’s 40% recycled cotton, 40% organic cotton, 20% seacell LT (which is a material made from algae). I’m using Crab Orange as colour A and Sunshine Yellow as colour B.

For size S I’ve used around 98 gr (230 meters/250 yards) of colour A and around 85 gr (200 meters/218 yards) of colour B (4 yarn balls in total= 480 meters/525 yards).

Depending on your size and your length preference, you might need between 200-600 gr (480-1440 meters/ 525-1574 yards) of yarn.

★This pattern is “made to measure”: it requires the use of a tape measure and few calculations. It doesn’t provide a specific stitch count for each size as, I believe, everyone has a different and UNIQUE body.

I designed it to be completely made to measure and suitable for everyone, no matter what size, gender, and body shape HOWEVER, it is true that each body is different, and there may be variations in how the pattern fits from person to person.

PS. I’ve created the design from start to end, so please DON’T COPY that.
By purchasing you agree not to distribute the pattern in any way, for free or for sale.
