As promised I have pictures. This is my new bohemian tank. It took me about three days to knit because it is super bulky.
8mm needles, Bernats Bamboo in pink and Paton's Kroy sock yarn in brown held together. The gauge is about 11sts/15rows to 4inches.
It sags a bit under the arms, but other than that is came out better than I expected. I'm thinking of pinning the straps together in the back, it might fix the sagging.

Bamboo and wool held together drapes beautifully and is very stretchy, but seems to sag like cotton.

Here's me showing off the front And

Very nice - I'm so all about pink and brown together lately so naturally I love your tank.

Thank you!
When I went hunting for yarn, I had no idea what I wanted. I didn't find anything I really liked until suddenly it hit me! The pink alone was okay, but not exciting; the brown was too fine for the project... together it was perfect!
