The Milano Top from Knit by TrineP
A tight-fitting high neck tank top, perfect for wearing under big blazer jackets or as a top for skirts or trousers in the summer. You can advantageously knit it with up to 5 cm of negative room for movement if you want a tighter version.

The top is knitted from top to bottom in stockinette stitch. First, the back piece is knitted back and forth with openings for armholes. Subsequently, the front piece is knitted in the same way. The work is then gathered and worked around in stockinette stitch until finished with a folded edge. Finally, stitches are picked up along the armhole, and a double-knit edge is knitted on the armhole, which will also become the strap, on each side.
