Nicole Tank from Kate Oates is a lightweight women’s top that can be
worn backward or forward depending on which neckline you are in the mood for. Straightforward,
easy to memorize A-line lace combined with a fitted bodice is a mixture made
for warmer weather and perfect by itself, on top of your favorite camisole or
under a jacket. The top is knit from a provisional cast-on that divides the
lace and the stockinette; the bodice is shaped from the bottom up, and the body
is created top down for easy length adjustment. The lace pattern is in
written form only.
