Summer Thorns is a lacy tee-shirt that features Thorny Lace on the chest, sides and bottom hem. The panels allow for some air flow in the heat, but the drape of the fabric prevents it from being overly revealing. This easy-to-wear shirt is fitted through the shoulders and chest and then has a dramatic A-line shape that flatters a variety of shapes and sizes. The airy tee is perfect for warm weather.

The pattern comes in 8 sizes from 32” - 60”.

Yardage requirements per size: Yardage Requirements: 800 (955, 1087, 1200) 1338, 1478, 1626,1780 yds or 732 (874, 994, 1097) 1224, 1352, 1487, 1628) meters

0-4” inches of positive ease, depending on how loose you like your tops. (Design is intended to be easily knit to your preference.) The a-line shaping is dramatic under the bust, and nice and flowy around the middle and hips.

Techniques you’ll need to know: knitting in the round, beginning lace, and short row shaping (for the neckline).

Summer Thorns has been tech edited and test knitted.
