Introducting -- the Vera Tank! The Vera Tank is the perfect basic that can be worn in all seasons.  In the summer, this tank pairs perfectly with shorts or a skirt. In the fall, it would look beautiful under a jacket or a heavier sweater in the winter.

The Details

I wanted to be sure this pattern was available to many different body types, so I designed it to fit sizes XXS-3X with plenty of options to customize length throughout.

 

The model shown is 6’ tall with a 33” bust, 36” hips, and is pictured wearing a size small with .5” of negative ease. This tank top is designed to have a snug fit around your bust. For best fit, choose a size that gives you 0-4” of negative ease around your bust. For example, if your bust measurement is 44 inches, you would wear a size Large. If you prefer to have your tank tops with a more relaxed fit, choose a size that gives you 0-4” of positive ease around your bust. For example, a bust size of 35 looking for a relaxed/loose fit would wear a size Medium. Throughout the pattern, I will point out places where you can adjust the length of sections to your liking.
