Knitting For Olive | Y Top Pattern & Yarn Pack
Knit the Perfect Summer Tank Top
Y Top is a sleek and stylish summer tank with a flattering deep V neckline and minimalist straight back. Designed with a form-fitting silhouette, it features an all-over ribbed texture that offers plenty of stretch while adding subtle detail. The top is knit from the bottom up, worked in the round to the underarm before splitting for front and back shaping.
The back stitches are held while each side of the front is shaped individually in rows. A neat I-cord edge completes the back for a clean, modern finish. The Y Top is intended to be worn with negative ease (approximately 5–13 cm / 1¾–4½") for a snug, body-hugging fit. With an inclusive size range, it’s a summer essential designed for all body types.
