Boat Neck Tank Crochet Pattern

Make a Top That Actually Gets Worn

Most tank tops sit in a drawer. This one gets reached for. The boat neck sits wide and relaxed, the back scoops lower for interest, and the soft A-line through the body means it flatters without pulling.

The whole thing is built in garter stitch, knit every row, so there are no purls to track and no charts to decode. Two flat panels, shoulder seam, side seam, and you have a finished top that looks far more polished than the construction suggests.

Skill Level: Confident Beginner
Finished Size: Finished bust 88 cm (34¾ in) at XS through 162 cm (64 in) at 5XL, with 10 to 14 cm of positive ease throughout

• Nine sizes, XS through 5XL, with a full finished measurements table so you can choose your size by how you want it to fit, not just by your bust number
• No picked-up edges, no ribbing, no bands — the garter selvedge is the finished armhole and side edge, so the construction is cleaner and simpler than most garment patterns at this level
• A-line shaping and neckline adjustments are built in so the fit is gentle on the body, not boxy or shapeless

    "I was nervous about my first garment but the instructions took all the guesswork out."
