Ice Maker is a dk/light worsted-weight tee - the lighter, more warm-weather-friendly version of my Ice Breaker top which released a couple of years ago (pattern page here).

Knit seamlessly from the bottom-up, it features simple eyelet motifs along the lower body, drop-shoulder construction and a high v-neckline. And you can easily lengthen the body if you prefer a longer length.

Designed to work well with DK or light worsted-weight cotton or linen blend yarns (although wool yarns would also work just as well!), it’s a simple and fun project that’s perfect for Spring and Summer knitting.

Pattern includes link to in-depth “tips page” which includes: how to pick a size, yarn ideas, gauge swatching tips, how to adjust for a different gauge and how to pick-up stitches for neckline and working mitered rib trim (and more!).

Picking Your Size:
