This knitting pattern is a downloadable PDF that guides you to knit a top-down seamless tank top for summer, with a lace panel at the front. The pattern includes inclusive sizing and clear instructions for every step.

This tank top, made of softness and lightness, features an elegant lace band with a motif reminiscent of the delicate flowers of a secret garden. It is worked from the top down, beginning with the straps, followed by the back and front sections, which are knitted flat. These two parts are joined at the underarms, and the body is then worked in the round down to the lower ribbing, which is worked flat to create a side slit. Stitches are then picked up around the neckline and armholes to add a simple finishing edge. The pattern is available in 12 sizes.
