Tubular Tank
The Tubular Tank is a 2x2 ribbed top that is inspired by laid-back, California surfer culture. This cropped tank is a versatile summer knit that you can throw on over your bathing suit or pair with favorite shorts/pants during the summer months!
▲ CONSTRUCTION
The tank is knit from the bottom up and in the round until we get to the underarm, where we’ll work the front and back of our garment separately. We’ll then attach the shoulders using a three needle bind off, and then pick up and knit a 1x1 rib around the collar and the armholes.
