The Breezy Batwing Tee

I enjoy winter, but by the time spring rolls around, I am more than ready to ditch the layers and add some brighter colours to my life. This tee is my welcome sign to spring. The subtle venting and the short batwing sleeves make this top light and cool without being completely see-through. I designed it with a #4 worsted yarn, but you can easily switch to a #3 DK for an even lighter feel.

The design features the Cable Stitch. Not to be confused with crochet cables, this stitch is similar to the crossed double crochet. It is very easy to do and coordinates well with the other stitches in this project. I have included full picture tutorials for the Cable Stitch as well as the 3rd LO in this pattern.
