I designed Skye as the perfect weekend tee: with a casual feel that can pair with pyjamas for slow mornings relaxing with coffee, but polished enough to pair with jeans for a leisurely neighbourhood stroll. Its minimal silhouette and textured stitch make for simple knitting and styling. Two ends of lace weight yarn are used to create this squishy and bouncy fabric: look for an animal-based fibre or an animal/plant mix that will drape well.

Construction Notes
•Front and back are worked flat from the bottom up and seamed at the sides to add structure to the silhouette.
•The shoulders are seamed using the 3-Needle Bind-Off.
•Stitches are picked up around the armhole circumference and the sleeve is worked in the round, top down.
•Stitches around the neck and picked up for a garter stitch trim.
