NOTE: This pattern will be available for purchase early June

This top is constructed from both the top-down and bottom up! With a simple lace pattern and a bit of short rows, this pattern is easy enough for an advanced beginner to tackle and for more experienced knitters to enjoy. This tee has a lot of drape due to the bamboo yarn that is recommended, although any type of yarn would be fine. Intended to have a good amount of positive ease, this tee fits loosely which is perfect for spring or summer!

A mix of cotton, silk, or bamboo would be a great alternative to pure bamboo/ cotton, although any yarn of this weight would be fine.

I used about 4 1/2-5 skeins of MC in Be Sweet 100% Bamboo
and around 2 skeins of CC in Tahki’s Cotton for the size small.
