GENERAL INFORMATION:

SunLane tee is a versatile yet extremely feminine and flattering lacy tee. Several different patterns make it not only visually stunning but also an extremely entertaining project. It is inspired by the light airy feel of the first sunny days in the early summer.

The tee has a straight silhouette with the fabric naturally forming a slight sleeves cap. The piece is knitted in the round, bottom up and split at the underarms and finished flat at the upper arm using the 3-needles bind-off technique.

The construction provides for an ease of approx. 8-10 cm / 3.25-4”.

The lower part of the tee utilizes all-round pattern, which then continues at the back, while the front transforms into less lacy patterned “lanes”. After the split at the underarms a flattering false V-neck lacy pattern underlines the light, airy feel of the design until the actual shallow scoop neckline is formed.
