Notes

Very pleased with the result!
I like the vertical lines running on the chest which are made by inc sts to make a drape at the neckline.
These inc sts also create the waist shapping naturally.
Great pattern!

I started “Petrie” the summer tank for taking part in a kal activity held in Kal in Japanese group.
Following the original, I was initially making it using summer yarn. After frogging few times, I changed my mind!
With some mods, this became a winter sweater.

楽しかった^^
夏糸で夏タンクを作っていましたが、ゲージやらサイズやらで蛙の出没数回。そんなこんなしているうちに、違う考えがむくむくっと。冬バージョンに方向転換しました。

Gave me a bit of experimental fun to make the texture stripy with gray Aran and held-double gray Lace mohair . I think the experiment is successful.
At least, kept me involved with the project!
