In The Garden
Wrap yourself in the quiet beauty of nature with the In The Garden tee, a charming knit that brings the spirit of summer to your wardrobe. This lightweight tee features a delicate band of floral colorwork, reminiscent of a joyous garden in full bloom.
With its gentle shaping and easy fit, it's perfect for layering over a summery dress or pairing with shorts for a casual everyday look.
In The Garden is knit seamlessly from the top down. You begin by casting on for the back neck. Increases are worked to shape the shoulders. After completing the back yoke, stitches for the fronts are picked up from the back shoulders. Simple shaping creates a crew neckline. After the front yoke is complete, the body of In The Garden is knit in the round. Floral colorwork decorates the body just before the hem. A cropped length makes In The Garden perfect for wearing over dresses or high-waisted bottoms. Top-down construction makes it easy to lengthen to your preference. Short sleeves add the finishing touch.
