The heart cut-out, which keeps its shape with wire reinforcements, makes this piece a serious statement. Otherwise, it features a simple and clean design with a high neckline, double-knit armhole edgings, and a folded hem for the bottom edge. Turn heads and break hearts in this iconic tank!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis tank top is knit seamlessly from the top down. Begin by casting on across the back shoulders and working flat down to the underarm. Stitches are picked up along the cast-on edge of the back to work the front shoulders, followed by increasing to join the neckline. The front panel is then knit flat with the heart cutout being incorporated until the front and back are joined under the armholes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe main body is worked in the round with optional waist shaping and ending with a folded hem. The armholes are finished with a double-knit edging and the neckband is finished with a 1x1 rib folded hem. An applied i-cord edging (with a wire insert recommended) is used to finish off the heart cutout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll sizes have a recommended body length of 9.25” [23.5 cm] from the underarm through the hem.

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.
