Aleksandra Tank (English)
Aleksandra Tank is a light and fitted tank top worked from top to bottom. This tank is worked in a stretchy 2x1 rib, with center drop stitches and i-cord finishing. This top is inspired by my mother (named Aleksandra) who worships the sun and loves her clothing to be comfortable and light.
