The Sunset Stripes Tank is a fun modern piece with V neck and racer back. Wear with high waisted pants or shorts for summer or layer under a cardigan or jacket in Spring and Fall.
Pattern includes different fit options and added length for more coverage. Designed in Sugar Bush Yarns Itty-Bitty a soft and light blend of superwash merino, nylon and cashmere.
The Sunset Stripes Tank comes in XS (as pictured) up to 5X. This pattern has been tested and looks amazing on all body types. See a college of tester photos below.
