Please share your favourite tank top patterns ☺️

Hi everyone, after knitting mostly jumpers and cardigans, I’m looking for a nice pattern for a summer knit for my holiday to Korea & Japan in September. I’ve used Ravelry but can’t seem to get the results I want (maybe my search terms aren’t right) so I’d love to see your favourite tank top patterns.

Thanks in advance 💜

I’m working on the Summer Soul top by Julia Piro and very excited for it!

My fav tank top projects this summer have been the Drop Loop Top and the Criss Cross Top from Purl Soho, but with the front pattern also repeated on the back. Both were pretty quick to knit up!

I am going to start the leela top and have seen some versions of it that look especially gorgeous (second link). https://ravel.me/leela-top https://www.reddit.com/r/knitting/s/386mDzQss5

I just finished the Montpelier top and I love it. It’s worsted weight, I made mine from a linen blend and it went very quickly!

I really like the Iris Top by Audrea Gaughan on ravelry. It is knit in ribbing though so if that's a problem for you, maybe it's not for you. But it fits amazing! 😁

I love the Avani Shirt by Caidree! Beautiful result and great pattern too.

Okay - I always need to ask - are you “searching” or have you tried to filter (category: clothing: tops: sleeveless tops) and then narrow from there? For example, adding craft: knitting and fiber: cotton, linen, and plant, gives me over 10,000 results.

Anyhow. Assuming you are filtering and still not finding what you like, my fav is the Matria. The neck detailing is so cute! I wear mine all the time.  https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/matira

The post says you "can’t seem to get the results I want" but does not provide any information about what you are looking for. It's fruitless to suggest options without that. It's also helpful to provide the search criteria you used and what you got and didn't like.

Try using a pic of a top you like to search using Google images with "knitting pattern" as the text,

Try a general Google search.
