If you’re looking for a new favorite piece for your warm-weather wardrobe, the Wander striped crochet tank top pattern by Knotted Nest is a perfect blend of style and comfort. It’s got a great breezy texture thanks to the open single crochet mesh, but it still feels sturdy with that chunky, sweater-style ribbing. It’s a fantastic choice for spring and summer when you want something handmade that actually breathes.
This striped crochet tank top pattern is designed for sizes S through 2XL and uses worsted weight yarn with a 5.5 mm hook. The construction is pretty clever – you just crochet two identical panels in vertical rows, which gives it a beautiful drape. You’ll get to practice some shaping with increases and decreases for the straps, and then finish it off with front and back post stitches for that professional-looking ribbing. Whether you go with bold, high-contrast stripes or a soft monochrome look, it’s the kind of top you’ll want to wear every day.
