Aliferous is a cropped tee, with a romantic lace detail at the hem and sleeve caps. Close fitting but not too tight, it is perfect to layer over a summer dress or pair with high-waisted jeans. I know I always reach for my knit tees in the warmer months and look forward to having this in my closet.

Made with Berroco Remix, a soft, washable and 100% recycled aran weight yarn, Aliferous will knit up in no time!
