Harvest Festival
About the Pattern If you're in search of a beautiful, cozy addition to your autumn wardrobe, look no further! This stunning autumnal yarn inspired tank top, featuring large, soft cables, will be the perfect companion for those crisp fall days. The intricate cable designs evoke fond childhood memories of creating bread plaits for Harvest Festival; just like those old dough plaits that mingled together when they rose, these cables will add a delightful texture to your garment.
This unique tank top or vest is expertly knitted from the top down, starting with a cast-on for the upper back. The clever use of short rows provides beautiful shaping, ensuring a comfortable fit. A striking central cabled plait runs down the center, while two additional plaits are started below each shoulder, creating charming little sleeve caps that perfectly balance the design. Once you’ve completed the back, stitches for the front are seamlessly picked up along the cast-on edge, then joined together to shape a lovely neckline.
After skillfully completing the armhole shaping for both the back and front, the project transitions into the round to work the body of the tank top. The design is finished with a deep twisted rib at the bottom hem, and narrow ribbing accents at the neckline and armholes for added elegance. This stylish piece can be dressed up or down, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.
To assist you in your knitting journey, this pattern includes both written and charted instructions for the cable panels, ensuring that you can follow along with ease, whether you prefer to read charts or follow text descriptions. Experience the joy of creating your very own autumnal cabled tank top, and embrace the season in style!
Perfect for knitters of all skill levels, this pattern not only promises a satisfying knitting experience but also results in a gorgeous, handmade garment that you’ll cherish for seasons to come. Don't miss out on adding this exquisite tank top to your knitting repertoire!
