Perfect for summer the Soleil Strips Tank<\/a> adds a splash of contrast. I really enjoy this design featured in the June 2019 issue of I Like Crochet Magazine<\/a>, it feels whimsical yet stylish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have heard this design explained as, \u201cEye catching with a total style, this tank offers flattering\npartial stripes that demands attention\u201d. I cannot say that I disagree, but I\nshould add that it works up quicker than you might expect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since it is worked vertically this\ntank is worked with yarn carries, so there are few ends to weave and simple\nsuccess is easy to achieve. In addition the stripes are only located at the\nfront edge of the neck and the lower edge of the back, so it is not\noverwhelming with various points to keep straight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stitch pattern is a simple\ncombination of single and double crochets, so that the focus really is the\ncolor changes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was inspired to create this design\nfrom the simple image that rested in my mind during some travel. I was walking\ndown a busy city street and the way that the light was playing off the windows\nand reflecting the adjacent buildings. It created this staggered uneven stripes\nthat stuck in my mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So when I was playing with Anzula yarns <\/a>I was drawn to place this image into a fabric, and hence this tank was created. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am pretty happy with the results, I\nhope you are too. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
