# Sunset Ombre Pompom Crochet Tank Free Crochet Pattern

Sunset ombre with playful pompoms — the happiest tank top! It fades from rich coral through golden peach to the softest cream, and the hem is trimmed with a row of fluffy little pompoms that bounce when you move. It’s joyful, it’s fun, and it’s the tank I wear when I need a mood boost.

Top-down construction with color changes every few inches, and the pompoms are just tiny yarn balls sewn on. Easy, breezy, happy.

Sophie’s Tips

  • Change colors at the round join — the ombre transitions will be nearly invisible.
  • Pompoms should be small and dense; trim them round with sharp scissors.
  • The tank is also adorable with the pompoms in coral instead of cream.

Chase the sun — this tank is pure happiness!
