The Axis Tank is the ultimate comfortable bra. You can wear it alone, layered with another bra, or to sleep in. Worn with a shaped, supportive bra, the Axis Tank distributes tension around your torso, relieving tight spots and uncomfortable restriction. It’s just the thing to layer with sheer tops, and is a super comfortable option to wear under sweaters and layers. Two neckline options work with a range of clothing styles, and both options are available with beautiful geometric design lines, creating panels that can be used for color blocking or trim insertion. 

GARMENT SPECIFICS The Axis Tank is an unlined cropped tank top bralette, designed to be worn as a comfort or layering garment. It is entirely elastic free. Four different views feature the tank with scooped and high necklines, with different design panels. View One + Three feature only two seams in the garment body, curving around the bust dart and along the side. View Two + Four has decorative colorblock panels inspired by vintage lingerie. All openings are finished with a super easy binding method using elastic or your garment fabric. 

This pattern includes all twelve sizes D/E cup sizing. If you need other bust options, see the separate B/C cup sizing and the bundle including both size ranges.

Garment can be entirely constructed with a sewing machine, serger/overlocking machine optional. Techniques required include zig zag stitches, pinning + sewing curved seams, and understitching seam allowances.

SUGGESTED FABRICS Knit fabrics with 50-75% stretch, preferably with a spandex content. Bamboo, Rayon, or blends with Cotton, Lycra, Silk, Spandex, Nylon, Tencel. 100% cotton tends to stretch out quickly. Measure stretch by marking out 4” of fabric, then gently stretch to max.

    I love Sophie Hines patterns. They’re incredibly well written and tested to perfection. I have the Axis and the Median Knickers and both are versatile and beautifully constructed. If you have any questions along the way, Sophie either has a video, sew along, blog, or she’ll answer questions directly. I can’t wait to try the Ascension Bra next!

    Love Sophie Hines' patterns. The drafting is on point, the aesthetic is exactly what I look for in lingerie, the instructions are so good, I recommend them to all my lingerie beginner friends! Also following Sophie on Instagram and chatting with her is a delightful bonus!

  • Brittany

    The patterns that Sophie Hines produces are all made with great attention to detail. The patterns are easy to follow, and while many have included new techniques that I was not yet familiar with, they are clearly explained. Every pattern I have made has given me a great sense of accomplishment!

  • Little House Seamstress

    I love Sophie Hines patterns, the instructions are always so well thought out and clear, plus the shapes and designs are perfection; comfortable but still sexy and cool!!! I particularly love the magical gusset burrito instructions with the Median Knickers.
