Stacy's Sadie tank

After spending some time as a shop model on the lovely Epiphany, Stacy's Sadie tank is making its official debut today!

This pattern has been very popular since the weather has gotten warmer.  We've just re-ordered more copies of it from designer Cheri Christian, along with some of her long-sleeve patterns for those of you wanting to get a jump on some fall knitting.

Stacy is wearing this top today as part of Me-Made-June, in which a world-wide group of sewists, knitters and crocheters have pledged to wear their own handmade garments every day in the month of June.  Check out the MMJ Flickr group for lots of wonderful handmade style and inspiration!

Oh, and here's the outtake from the Sadie photo shoot.  Bibi was being her usual delicate self, snorting and snuffling while washing her fluffy back end.  Thanks, Beebs...thanks for that.

Yarn: Kertzer Super 10 aka Butterfly Cotton (100% mercerized cotton)

Pattern: Sadie by c2knits (Cheri Christian)

Needle size: US 4, US 6, and US 5 if you're doing the waist shaping

One customer is making this in Premiere (known to some of you as "the world's finest cotton").  We're also thinking it would be fabulous in Cotton Fleece or Classic Silk!
