The Allium Tank draws inspiration from the allium bloom, known for its tall and straight stem topped with a full blossom. Like the flower, the tank design exudes a simple elegance paired with a flirty flair, making it a perfect choice for summer wear.

This worsted/dk design is crafted in a bottom-up fashion, beginning with form-fitting ribbing that smoothly transitions into a stockinette bust featuring increases. The straps are knitted and then seamed to the back, while the ruffles are picked up and knitted flat. Decorative buttons finish off the tank, adding a charming touch that enhances its country-chic aesthetic.
