Tulip Tank Top
Another elegant freebie from those clever girls at Purl Soho! Tulip is a simple tank that crosses over in the back, creating a clever design detail with little effort. The project involves a few short rows, so it isn’t for the absolute beginner, but an advanced beginner or intermediate knitter should be ok.
It calls for Louet Euroflax Sport, but you could also go a notch more luxe with Quince & Co Sparrow, or shift down to silky soft and budget friendly Cascade Ultra Pima.
