Trine’s tank top is our take on a knitting pattern with a design. You can knit it in good times and bad, but keep your wits about you and your eye on the stitches, or else your tank top might end up with holes that are too big. And our top is already a bit spicy, so stick to the pattern! The top is knitted in lace pattern with ribbed structure and therefore very elastic, so it can fit snugly to the body. It is knitted from the bottom up, it is the same for the front and back, and it is finished with four triangular points and straps. The amount of yarn is specified for a short top (as in the photo), but you can knit it longer if you wish.
