Materials and other details:

  • Yarn
    443 (504, 567, 637, 701, 775) (845, 910, 990, 1062) yards [404 (460, 518, 582, 640, 707) (771, 831, 904, 970) meters] of worsted- or DK-weight yarn to achieve gauge. You may need more if you are planning to make a longer length tank top, although these yardages already have an extra 10% as buffer. I recommend choosing a fiber that will provide enough elasticity for this style of top, such as a wool or wool/cotton blend.
  • Gauge
    22 sts and 34 rows in stockinette stitch to 4” [10 cm] on US 5 [3.75 mm] needles or needles needed to obtain gauge, after blocking.
  • Needles & Notions
    -US 5 [3.75 mm] circular needles for working the body, or whatever size needles are needed to achieve gauge as mentioned above. Recommended cable length will vary. I recommend choosing between 16”, 24”, 32”, or 40” needles (depending on your size and preferred method for working in the round).
    - US 4 [3.5 mm] circular needles for working the hem and neckline. Recommended cable length will vary, but I recommend choosing a needle with a shorter cable length (closer to 16”) as this needle will only need to span the neckline of the top and other smaller details.
    - (Optional, but strongly recommended) 20 gauge [0.88 mm] galvanized steel wire to add structure to the heart cut-out. Note: It is not recommended to machine wash your top if you’ve included wire, but using wire is highly recommended for structural integrity.
  • If using wire, wire cutters and pliers are also highly recommended
  • Removable stitch markers
  • Tapestry needle
  • Stitch holder or waste yarn to place stitches on temporarily
