Luasc
…….
LUASC
A basic v-neck T-shirt with dazzling possibilities, Luasc can be as minimalist or as exuberant as you like.
Options are provided for a variety of sleeve and bodice styles, offering several looks in one pattern. The gentle curvature of the v-neck creates a flattering neckline, while the hem and cuff treatments result in a clean finish - giving Luasc the look and feel of a true T-shirt, rather than a short-sleeve sweater.
Quick and uncomplicated, this is an ideal pattern for summer, to pair with cotton, linen, nettle, hemp, or silk-blend yarns.
Luasc means ‘flutter’ in Irish, referring to the (optional) style of the sleeves.
