Axis Tank in Hudson Knit fabric

Axis Pank in Hudson Knit in Desert Rose

Axis Tank by Sophie Hines

This pattern by Sophie Hines is one of my absolute favorite and is a wardrobe staple. Depending on the fabric you use, it can be made into a workout top or a regular tank top.

For this top, I chose to make the top longer and I increased the length of the top by 3″ and omitted the bottom band.

I love how this turned out. It is a pretty simple pattern and can be sewn up with just different zig zag stitches in a regular sewing machine.

The Fabric

The fabric is a n Hudson jersey that is perfectly opaque. It has about 40-50% stretch. After sewing this tank, I would size up once the next time I sew this up in a similar fabric.

The fabric comes in so many different colors. Check the shop to see all them all. The colors are saturated and the fabric washes well. The color I used is Desert rose is more pink than what is on the website, so be aware that there may be some differences. The fabric is 58-60″ wide and about 200gsm/5.9oz in weight per sq. yard, which make this fabric close to a medium weigh tin my opinion. It is perfect for most garments.
