So my husband says to me “Can you knit me a tank top?” And he shows me a picture of a very expensive, but 1970’s-influenced sleeveless Fair Isle-type jumper. Queue endless searches on the web for the “right” pattern. I found a real vintage pattern in the end (I’ve added a photo to show what I started with), then updated the colours. The pattern’s a bit out, I reckon , so I adapted some of the details, like the number of stitches to pick up round the neck and armholes, but it’s balanced, so I think it’s fine. And hubby likes it, so it was worth the swearing when I had to unpick regularly! The pattern is unforgiving!
