This flattering tank features A-line shaping, a handkerchief front hem, and a V-neck. The front "handkerchief" point is formed by pairing increases at the side edges with decreases on both sides of the center ribs. The center-front ribs are crossed into a single cable that defines the V-neck opening; the ribs then extend to the shoulder and across the back neck. With no armhole or front-neck finishing, this tank is a breeze to knit. Made out of soft cotton yarn, it is super-comfortable to wear.
