twist collective spring/summer 2016: Haden by Courtney Kelley

By Kate Gagnon Osborn on April 12, 2016October 8, 2020

The new twist collective is up! 

Courtney has a lovely summery tank in the issue designed using The Fibre Co. Canopy Fingering in the color mango. 

Haden is worked in pieces from the bottom up. The button plackets are picked up on the right and left side of the front neck and worked in 1×1 rib, then sewn together and sewn to the base of the front neck.

SPECIFICATIONS:
Size:
 Bust: 35 (38 ½, 42, 46, 49 ½, 53)” / 89 (98, 106.5, 117, 125.5, 134.5) cm. Shown in size 35” / 89 cm and intended to be worn with 0–1” / 0–2.5 cm ease.
Yarn: The Fibre Co. Canopy Fingering in Mango, 4 (4, 5, 6, 6, 7) skeins.
Needles: Size 3 US / 2.75 mm, Size 1 US / 2.25 mm, Size 1 US / 2.25 mm needles in preferred style for small circumference knitting in the round for armhole bands. 
Notions: Stitch markers, stitch holder, sewing needle and thread to match yarn color, tapestry needle, 7 buttons ¼” / 6.5 mm diameter
Gauge: 26 sts and 35 rows = 4” / 10 cm in Diagonal Garter Rib on larger needles. 29 sts and 43 rows = 4” / 10 cm in 1×1 Rib on smaller needles

From Courtney: 

“I have been searching forever for the perfect summer tank pattern, and I finally found the time this winter to sit down and design one. This pattern is a great advanced beginner project, with just enough patterning to keep you on your toes, and some next-level finishing techniques to test your mettle. I love any excuse to use lots of tiny buttons, but the buttonholes could be easily altered if you wanted to use a more standard size and spacing. I’m planning to knit one of these for myself, with about 4” of positive ease, using our yarn Meadow… Once I tackle some of these lingering UFO’s!”

Let us know what you’re planning on knitting for yourself this summer!
