Arctic Summer Eve Tee
This fun tee is worked top-down, using the contiguous method. It is worked with Lofoten wool’s sport-weight 2-ply barber pooled yarn, but you can of course use solid coloured yarn as well. The sleeves and body are both finished with some simple colourwork borders and folded hems. While the tee has little ease around the bust, it has some subtle a-line shaping for a flowy airy fit around the body.
I hope you will enjoy this pattern, and if you need any help, please do not hesitate to contact me in my Ravelry group ‘Skeindeer Knits’. It’s the best place for swift support.

Construction
This tee is worked top-down, seamlessly in the round, using the contiguous method. The pattern takes care to make more sleeve stitches at the top of the shoulders to better fit the shoulder shape.
The body features a subtle A-line shaping that makes the tee fit the bust with little ease, and offers more ease for the body.
Both the body and the sleeves are finished with a colourwork border and a folded hem.
