K12tog August Project - Otherside Tank

PROJECT: Otherside Tank by Melanie Berg

RECOMMENDED YARN: Quince & Co. Sparrow

A boxy and airy sleeveless summer top, Otherside is knitted up quickly at a loose gauge. The stripes add just the right amount of interest to this shirt, making it a perfectly wearable addition to your everyday wardrobe.

Otherside is worked flat in one piece, starting at the front hem. Stitches are bound off in the middle of the row for the neckline and casted on again in the next row. Then the back is worked top-down.

Materials: You'll need fingering weight yarn, ideally linen. Check the pattern for sizing/yardage - it ranges from 482 - 810 yds for the main color and 130 - 234 yds for the contrasting color. We're recommending Quince & Co. Sparrow. While Quince doesn't permit retailers to sell their yarns online, phone and email orders are a-ok! So if you can't stop by the shop just give us a call or shoot us an email to place your order. You'll also need US 7 - 4.5 mm needles for working flat (either straight or circular will do).
