The new and improved Roundabout Leaf Tank with less overwhelming straps! (I don't know what's wrong with the color still... maybe I should take some pictures tomorrow during the daylight hours!).

On both the front and the back, I picked up another inch worth of stitches and rapidly decreased 4 on each right side row. I think the effect looks like a big leaf. Then I mirrored the lace on either side of the strap and put 3 leaves in the middle.

If you're making the Roundabout and want to alter the straps, here's my recipe:

BASE:
Pick up 39 stitches across the front with RS facing.
Row 1: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P30 YO P2tog P2
Row 2: (RS) K3 YO SSK K10 SSK SSK K1 K2tog K2tog K11 YO SSK K2
Row 3: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P26 YO P2tog P2
Row 4: (RS) K3 YO SSK K8 SSK SSK K1 K2tog K2tog K9 YO SSK K2
Row 5: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P22 YO P2tog P2
Row 6: (RS) K3 YO SSK K6 SSK SSK K1 K2tog K2tog K7 YO SSK K2
Row 7: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P18 YO P2tog P2
Row 8: (RS) K3 YO SSK K4 SSK SSK K1 K2tog K2tog K5 YO SSK K2
Row 9: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P14 YO P2tog P2
Row 10: (RS) K3 YO SSK K2 SSK SSK K1 K2tog K2tog K3 YO SSK K2
Row 11: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P10 YO P2tog P2
Row 12: (RS) K3 YO SSK K0 SSK SSK K1 K2tog K2tog K1 YO SSK K2
Row 13: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P6 YO P2tog P2
Row 14: (RS) K3 YO SSK SSK K1 K2tog K1 YO SSK K2
Row 15: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P18 YO P2tog P2
Row 16: (RS) K3 YO SSK Slip1 K2tog PSSO K1 YO SSK K2

Plain Strap Portion:
Row 1: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P2 YO P2tog P2
Row 2: (RS) K3 YO SSK K2 YO SSK K2
Repeat rows 1 and 2 for a total of 7 rows.

Insert mini leaf (8 Rows):
Row 1: (RS) K3 YO SSK (K1 YO K1 YO K1 YO K1) K1 YO SSK K2 [parantheses is all in 1 stitch)
Row 2 and all even rows: (WS) P3 YO P2tog P2 YO P2tog P2
Row 3: K3 YO SSK SSK K3 K2tog YO SSK K2
Row 5: K3 YO SSK SSK K1 K2tog YO SSK K2
Row 7: K3 YO SSK Slip1 K2tog PSSO K1 YO SSK K2

Repeat Plain Strap Portion for 8 rows
Repeat Mini Leaf

Repeat Plain Strap Portion for 8 rows
Repeat Mini Leaf

Repeat Plain Strap Portion for 8 rows
Break yarn with a long tail and place live stitches on holder.

Repeat Base on back, but break yarn with a long tail before strap portion.

Kitchner stitch the 2 sets of live stitches together (11 stitches on each needle).

Repeat the entire process on the other side.

Hopefully I typed all that up correctly! Let me know if there are any errors. (Also keep in mind that the total length of the straps from base to base is about 19 inches, you can adjust for your own measurements by adding an extra repeat of the leaf and plain strap, or by adding rows to the plain strap area).
