SPRING! SPRING! SPRING! The Gentle Rain tee is a celebration of spring! As summer approaches in the Midwest and the temperatures rise, every rain cloud feels like a gift. Every time a breeze carries in soft clouds, the cool temperatures that accompany rainfall give us the chance to pull on a hand-knit sweater. The Gentle Rain tee is a quick knit for all seasons! Worked seamlessly from the top down, the Gentle Rain tee is a puddle-popping playground for color. Using four colors and uncomplicated (rain-shaped) stranded colorwork, this sweater never requires you to catch a float. Grab your knitting needles, bring an umbrella, and enjoy the bounty of spring with the Gentle Rain tee!
This sweater is knit seamlessly from the top down in four colors. This pattern includes instructions for modifying the circumference of your sleeves, and for changing the length of your yoke to fit your gauge. BONUS: Use the coloring page included in the pattern to plan your tee!
