An easy-going sleeveless t-shirt is comfortable to wear and looks great with a dressy skirt or with casual jeans. Use a single color of speckled or solid yarn, make a fade, stripe it up with two colors, or go wild with random stripes of fingering yarn from your stash.

Construction
Worked bottom up in the round to armholes, then split to work the chest flat, the shoulders are joined with my favorite seam, the 3-Needle Bind off. The stockinette body is accented by a seed stitch bottom border and crocheted finishing around the armholes and neckline.
