Billhook Tank

Billhook is a stylish tank top featuring an elegantly shaped hemline, perfect for both casual and dressy occasions. Designed to be worn with little to no ease, this flattering garment is crafted in the round from the bottom up, showcasing waist shaping that is beautifully accentuated by the distinctive Billhook Lace pattern running along the sides. The innovative English tailored shoulder design gracefully wraps from the front to the back, ensuring a clean and sophisticated fit.

The body of the Billhook tank top is worked seamlessly in the round, then transitions to separate front and back pieces. Notably, the front armholes are designed to have a longer depth compared to the back, providing a unique and comfortable silhouette. All shoulder shaping is executed on the back shoulders, ensuring an impeccable finish. After the shoulders are joined, the neckband and armholes are skillfully picked up, adding to the polished look of this exquisite top.

Gauge specifics for this pattern are 22 stitches and 31 rounds per 4 inches (10 centimeters) over Stockinette stitch, blocked to achieve the ideal fit and drape.

This knitting pattern employs various techniques, including knitting in the round, performing increases and decreases, working with simple lace either from a chart or written instructions, picking up stitches, and minimal seaming. Whether you’re an experienced knitter or a beginner looking to challenge yourself, the Billhook tank top pattern offers a rewarding project that results in a beautiful, wearable piece.
