I blogged about this one here. Again, a while ago. It doesn't look a whole lot different now, but I thought it deserved an official FO post.
This is an interesting design, if I do say so myself: nothing more than basic ribbing, with a little shaping, but the horizontal ribbing in the center panel makes for a pretty dramatic design feature and adds curves where they don't really exist.
I used some Rowan cashsoft dk I had in the stash for a long time (I ordered it by mistake, thinking it was cashcotton). I debated for some time about what sort of sleeves to make for this. In the end, I decided to make it a tank top, mostly because I wanted to move on to something new and this was the fastest finish.
I did a quick single crochet finish around the armholes to give them some structure.
I've never actually worn this. I think it would be more wearable with sleeves, and some day I may get around to knitting some. In the meantime, I think it would make a good vest over a shirt, but since that's not really a wardrobe concept I've ever embraced, it mostly just sits on a shelf in my closet.

I know you're busy, but if you ever get some time, a pattern for this would be awesome. Even just a vague idea, Elizabeth Zimmerman style pattern.
I love it!
It turned out great. Would it work as a shell under a suit jacket with slacks?
looks great! And seriously, we need to see you model it before its gets "shelved". I think it would look terrific with one a skirt, along the lines of what you've sewn up already.
This is so elegant. Classy work. You always impress me.
This is beautiful! Thought it was "for work" when I first saw it. Hate to think of it in the closet!
Its really beautiful!
Fabulous as a tank! I would love to knit this in a DK or sport weight yarn, as there's a garment worth in almost every color in my stash. (I don't have a yarn problem. I go buy more yarn, no problem. :) Srsly though, I'm with Laia - would love "pithy directions" a la EZ if you had the time and inclination to provide them. <3
removed comment and re-posted to add: if this design was available as a pattern, I would buy it in a heartbeat!
I think this would look sharp under a jacket for work, or over a cute fitted t-shirt on a more casual day. Very nice.
I would love some notes to recreate this, and I would definitely pay for a pattern! Looks great, at first glance I thought it was something Kim Kardashian would wear, accentuating her curves. I love it!
Love this! Would love the pattern too...
Здравствуйте, модель суперская! Получилось очень круто! Можно спросить, а схемы вязания модель у вас не осталось?
I really would love to buy the pattern.
It is so beautiful 🤩🌷
