This charming tee with its short sleeves and round neckline is perfect for warm days. The upper part is plain, while the lower part features wavy stripes in contrasting colors. The wave pattern adds a playful touch, making it a real eye-catcher.

Lunas TeeShirt is knitted seamlessly from top to bottom. First, cast on stitches for the collar and knit in the round. For a better fit at the neck, work short rows and simultaneously start increasing stitches for the sleeves and the front/back. Once all the stitches are increased, the sleeve stitches are divided, and the body and sleeves are finished separately. The body is adorned with a lace pattern in a wave design, while the sleeves are knitted straight without decreases and cast off after a few rounds.
