what's one more?

i've mentioned in the past that my ravelry queue is a little out of control. i'm not here to tell you that i've got it organized or under control or anything, because i haven't... it's into the 7th page!!.(and there's nothing wrong with that) all that's been happening lately is that it's growing... fast, and with serious determaination to overtake my subconcious. it's working too... because i can't stop thinking about my latest addition to the queue....

i have to knit this tank. have to! it's the tank i would be looking for in stores. perfect fit, right amount of coverage, and just so me.
hilary smith callis has done it again. it's just awesome!
i want to knit it. right now. i can't but i really want to.

and guys, the possibilities for colour combos are endless. it would also look just as amazing in one colour too.

the pattern recommends the yarn be sweet bamboo. i've never knit with that before. i bet it's divine! though any bamboo or cotton yarn would be suitable for this project. meaning i bet knit picks cotLin would be a very affordable option if you want say 3 or 4 of these tanks. .... what? that's totally a possibility!

anyways, i've clearly been sidetracked from being productive this morning... because those pretty blues, and that gorgeous tank would be perfect for me. perfect.

tell me. you really want to knit this too... don't you? what colour combos would you do?? any yarns off the top of your head that you think would be perfect? 
**(disclaimer... i was not approached to post about this pattern. i simply am in love with it. i could i not be?)**

    You're right about the perfectness! I'm really liking the tonal stripes. I'm working on a striped tank at the moment using two shades of Knit Picks Stroll Tonal and I love the subtle color changes. It's mostly stockinette but those colors are just so fun to work with. A tank in bamboo/cotton would be so nice. Can't wait to see this in your FOs! I only have a 3 page queue, but my favorites list is out of control, too!

      what tank are you working on? i should go check out your project page. also i think that a queue and favourite folder are just places that we shuffle more and more loves of knitting.. really they can never be too long, right? xoxo

    Would be totally perfect for summer! I would knit mine in a bright color combined with a neutral. Maybe chartreuse and tan or a bright pink and grey. Color blocks instead of stripes. Ombré color technique would also be cool. The possibilities are endless :)
