Homestead Tank
Through the Eyes of a Machine Knitter
This tank is a simple shape that will inspire any sweater design.
The knit and purl checkerboard stitch pattern with the addition of some eyelets can be used for sleeveless sweaters, vests, cardigans or pullovers ... you're the designer!
The buttoned back adds interest and the sweater could be reversed for fun.
You can knit this on the machine!
PLUS: This stitch pattern is reversible, so it would make a great scarf or shawl

- Brother knitters: use a garter carriage
- Hand manipulate the stitches ... it's still faster than knitting by hand
- Use a ribber and transfer stitches between the beds
