Lycka
Lycka is a light and airy summer top with simple straight lines, a rounded back and a triangularly-shaped lace rib pattern at the front. The partial shadow provided by a roof of leaves on a hot summer day inspired the unique but very easy lace rib pattern that extends the v-neck shape to create a feminine and flattering look.

PATTERN NOTES
The tee is knitted flat in two pieces from the bottom up, then joined at the shoulders using three-needle bind off. The sides are then seamed.
When working short row shaping at the BACK, pick up and work all wraps with wrapped sts as you pass them.
For larger sizes, the wide and airy lace triangle at the front starts lower than pictured in the sample.
