LADIES LUNCH DATES
This is simply the perfect tee for throwing on with a pair of comfy jeans and some fun shoes for popping to your local café for a lunch date with the gorgeous lady friends in your life.
It’s equally at home knit in something a little bit extra and paired with a cute pair of slacks and your favourite dressy sandals for a summer date night with your significant other.
Ladies Lunch Dates is a casual drop shoulder tee with simple to knit stripes that you’ll want to knit again and again and again… .
Try to play with both fibre content and colour combinations for infinite possibilities.

Samples were knit in the following yarns:
Pink/Green - Harnie Hoolie’s Designs - Silky McSilkface
Ombre - Harnie Hoolie’s Designs - Silky Humps
Rainbow - Yarn Floozy - Staple
Pink/Blue/Green - Happy Go Knitty - Mardi

All in size 6 - 120cm. Julie’s full bust measurement is 101cm giving her 19cm of ease.
Recommended ease is 15-20cm but choose a size that gives you the fit you prefer.

I encourage you to play around with not only colour, but colour placement. There’s no rule that says you have to follow a specific sequence for your stripes, each one of my samples is different and they each give off a very different vibe. Check out the tester versions too, each one as unique as the knitter.
