This charming tee is perfect for warm days with its short sleeves and crew neck. The upper part is kept simple, while the lower part features wavy stripes in contrasting colours. The wave pattern gives the piece a playful touch and makes it a real eye-catcher.
Luna's TeeShirt is knitted seamlessly from top to bottom. First you pick up stitches for the collar and knit it in the round, the smaller sizes knit in rows to create a small button band at the back neckline. For a better fit on the neck,
work german short rows and at the same time start increasing stitches for the sleeves and the front/back. Once all stitches have been increased, separate the sleeve stitches and finish the body and sleeves separately. The body is decorated with a lace pattern in a wave look, the sleeves are knitted straight without decreases and cast off after a few rounds.
