The Marni Tee is a t-shirt style, no-sleeve, drop-shoulder sweater-tank; a summer staple. The loose gauge and casual fit with subtle sequin details make this a comfortable yet stylish wear with a beautiful drape, embodying the “simple to make, easy to wear” motto. Knit in two pieces, this boxy-style top is seamed together using Three Needle Bind Off for the side and shoulder seams. A subtle splash of sparkle is added to the side Garter Stitch detail and neckband ribbing. This is a versatile piece to add to your wardrobe, wear it over a bandeau or tank in the spring/summer and layer it over short or long sleeves in the fall/winter months.
