Introducing a beautifully crafted button-through tank top pattern, originally featured in Knitting magazine. This stylish design showcases a charming small-scale all-over check cable pattern, making it a delight for both novice and experienced knitters. The tank top features elegant buttons running down the front and intricate mock pocket tops, adding a touch of sophistication to any wardrobe. With a length of approximately 40-46 cm, this versatile piece is perfect for layering or wearing on its own during warmer months.

For this tank top, we recommend using premium Shilasdair yarns, available in either 50 gm or 100 gm balls, depending on your preference. The yarn quantities indicated for this pattern are based on using 50 gm balls, with actual yarn usage ranging from 130 gms for smaller sizes to 190 gms for larger sizes. This makes it an excellent choice for those looking to create a custom garment while keeping yarn waste to a minimum.
