Sun Glow is a light summer tee, designed to be worn with 6-8” of positive ease for a relaxed fit. Modular construction makes this a great travel project. The center lace section can be knit in a contrast color (as shown) or the tee can be knit all in one color.

Selecting a size
Sun Glow is designed to be worn with 6-8” of positive ease. With this in mind, you should select a size that is 6-8” larger than your actual bust measurement.

Note
When working with linen, or other plant based fibers, I suggest joining a new ball of yarn at the beginning of a new row.

Construction
Sun Glow is a modular tee that begins with a lace panel in a contrasting color. Stitches are picked up along the edges of the panel using the main color and knit outwards to the ends of the sleeves. The front and back of the sweater are worked the same and are seamed at the sides and shoulders.
