I usually avoid knitting and wearing anything with sleeves during the summer. It gets so incredibly hot that I just can’t stand them. But as soon as I saw this beautiful, feminine design by Sari Nordlund, with its tiny little sleeves, I knew I was going to make an exception.

I’m really happy with my Ebba Tee, especially paired with the matching skirt that I also knitted. I have this habit of constantly tugging at the hem of the top or smoothing it down, but that’s only because I’m not used to wearing such cropped tops. I hope I’ll get over it, because I have no intention of making it longer. Adding length to my Ebba Tee would take away some of its charm.

It was a pleasure to knit this pattern. As always, the designer’s instructions are clear, thorough, and easy to follow.
