Springboard into Summer





Now that I am off my soap box, it is back to the business at hand.  With the warm weather on the horizon, and this yarn, the Berroco Weekend in my stash, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to knit up this cute little tank.  Knit in one piece from the bottom up, it is knit in the round using a circular needle.  I used a #24 inch circular.  I did my staple crab stitch around the neck and armholes, to work as reinforcement, and hopefully help keep the garment in its original shape.

These days there are a lot of seasonal knit patterns and pattern books available for spring and summer.  Gone are the days where we knitters are relegated to knitting just for the winter or the fall.  Knitting is not just for sub-zeros temperatures anymore.
