We've looked at classic wool tank tops for the smalls. Here's our pick of the best around. Plus a knitting pattern for one in case you're feeling creative (or know a good knitter)

A children’s wool tank top is a classic. Slip it on over a shirt, a blouse or even a dress. Tank tops are a great way to combat the beginnings of the winter chill and less bulky than wearing a sweater or cardigan.

The royals themselves have displayed a fondness for a patterned woollen tank top on a few occasions.

But knowing where to find a miniature sized classic wool tank top for your child isn’t the easiest of tasks. Don’t worry, we’ve done the searching for you. (You might also like to read: why beach huts are hot property.)
