The Heartstopper Tee is is a beautiful summer knit featuring some lovely lacework detailing. It is worked mostly in the round from the bottom up, with compound raglan decreases worked at the yoke. The pattern includes both written instructions and a chart for the Lace Heart Stitch pattern, as well as 2 charts per size for the yoke and neck shaping.

Construction
You will start by knitting the sleeves and body separately up to the underarm point, before joining the three pieces to work the yoke. The neckline is shaped by binding off stitches at the front and then working back and forth in rows while decreasing at the edges. You will finish by working an applied i-cord around the neckline.
