Sulphur Slant is an interpretation of the crystal structure of elemental sulphur. The most common form of sulphur is the yellow crystalline S8, which forms a ring or “crown” structure. Here in this tank, the crown is represented by a simple lace pattern that builds on itself in the body and splits flawlessly in the front and back to form a V. Whether you’re pondering the periodic table or running errands, this tank will keep you cool with allover eyelets in a striking pattern. Knit in the recommended cotton/linen blend, it’s a perfect garment for your warm weather wardrobe.

Lace pattern is fully charted separately for each size. Tank is worked from the bottom up, working the torso in the round, then separating fronts and backs to work flat. Shoulders are finished with a three needle bind off.
