When the tenderness of the wild herbs touched with the first frost catches your eye…
The tee is absolutely seamless. It’s worked in the round, top-down and has a round yoke decorated with laces. The edges are worked with an attractive variation of a half-twisted broken ribbing. The back is raised with short rows, which is optional: the tee could be successfully worn without them. The pattern is very friendly to beginners; it contains clear and full instructions and links to video tutorials.
