Chunky Safari Tank Top Round & V Neck Knitting Pattern - 5931

Knit a pair of stylish, cosy layering pieces with this King Cole 5931 knitting pattern leaflet. Designed for Chunky weight yarns, this pattern provides complete instructions to knit two contemporary ladies' sleeveless garments: a dramatic draped Cowl Neck Tank and a classic, flattering V-Neck Tank. Both designs feature relaxed, easy-to-wear styling with neat ribbed edgings along the hem and armholes. The garments are worked straight on standard 5.00mm and 6.00mm knitting needles, allowing chunky yarns to work up quickly with fantastic stitch definition and comfortable drape. We stock the printed pattern leaflet alongside a wide range of quality Chunky weight yarns right here in our shop, so you can easily choose your favourite shade and cast on straight away.

Product Information

Please note that this listing is for the physical paper knitting pattern leaflet only, not the completed garments. Yarn, knitting needles, and notions are sold separately.

Tension note: Standard pattern tension is 14 stitches and 20 rows to 10 cm (4 inches) over stocking stitch using 6.00mm knitting needles. When substituting alternative chunky yarns from our collection or your stash, always knit a tension square on 6mm needles before beginning to ensure your finished top achieves the correct size and fit.
