Thalia
I'm still plotting to tweak some things for the final pattern, but for just me I'm happy with this shirt.
ETA: I should have mentioned this the first time I posted. My original vision was fairly different from this final version, but I held true to my desire for a tank top inspired by ancient Greek fashion. There is a reason that so many designers through the ages kept looking back to the Greco-Roman period for inspiration!
The ribbing pattern gives the impression of pleats, and the cowl neck gives real pleats and a pleasant drape.

Thank you ladies! I am pretty pleased with myself.
I had been thinking and working with this thing for a long time before I ever cast on, but I was still rather amazed at how neatly it came together.
I have nailed down the pattern in my size but I still need to finish fleshing out the other sizes. I probably won't get to do that until tonight or this weekend.
I also need to add in a few more directions for an alternate (less involved) ribbing in the torso.
My goodness, WOW! That's gorgeous!
Hi! I just saw the pic of Thalia in the new ravelry groups, and I was next to speechless upon finding the post here. It's absolutely gorgeous!
Gorgeous waist shaping with the inc/dec bit! Fabulous tank.
