@Tui34, if you look at the pattern details it tells you where it was published. Unfortunately one seems to be out of print and the other is a magazine from 2015. You could try to find a used copy somewhere (ebay, Etsy?) but otherwise it is unavailable.
Ravelry is database of many patterns. Some can be downloaded from Ravelry, some from elsewhere, and some are printed patterns that may or may not be available still.

 

Oh dear I didnt realise it was a vintage one.

Do you have any British charity shops nearby?
I will ask around at my knit and natter club,also have a search through the patterns....you never know!

 

Vintage pattern Store has a pattern similar to that @Tui34 .I just googled vintage tank top and it came up via Etsy . I think I may have a pattern similar to what you want, I’ll take a look through my patterns tonight.

 

Here’s a pattern( albeit for a man) currently on eBay…

 

@Tui34 , check out etsy, there are a lot patterns for female vintage tank tops there. Hopefully there will be one which will meet your requirements.

 

Thank you everyone @Valley Gardener @katecat58 @Songbird for your kind contributions. I will check out Etsy. Just wanted a simple tank top to use up my stray bits of wool. Need some colour for the winter - even over a plain blouse in the summer - to cheer up the place!

 

Would this do @Tui34 ? Ravelry: Eilidh pattern by Mary Henderson

You can download it for £4.

 

Hey! Etsy has some snazzy patterns. Getting quite excited!! Thank you @Songbird. And thank you to you @Valley Gardener and @katecat58 Very very windy here this afternoon. Not a puff of wind this morning when I went on my ride with Fizz - it's really come up now and whistling down the chimney!!

 

I can't seem to register with Etsy in the UK so will have to do this ex-France. The only thing that concerns me is that the pattern will be in French - which defeats this whole purpose- I can't understand French knitting patterns. Will keep you posted.

 

Both Amazon and Ebay have knitting patterns @Tui34.
There may be some amongst them that will mail to France.

 

Love that pattern, @Obelix-Vendée . I'm quite tempted to buy it myself... I guess @Tui34 hasn't seen your message yet, since she posted more or less simultaneously.

Edited to say: I've just noticed that there are 2 more Fair Isle tank tops shown on that page, with V necks, which might appeal...

 

Morning Crafters!!

I successfully registered with Etsy! So, that's that small thing..... I found a couple of patterns
and would be happy to share them with you, if you would like.

Again thank you very much for you patient help!! Have a safe week!!

Very nice @Tui34 I wish my knitting was that far advanced, I'm only just dipping my toes into Intarsia,and that's only for dolls clothes. Still it's all good practice to get the tension right.
Well done on tracking down the patterns.
