Beautifully Basic Tee DK
The Beautifully Basic Tee is knit top-down, in one piece, seamlessly, and is the simplest version of a knitted tee; a blank canvas to let the yarn shine, a perfect design for beginners, for social knitting, of for binge watching your favorite show.
The Beautifully Basic Tee in DK features the same construction and schematic measurements of my original, fingering weight, Beautifully Basic Tee, with the addition of optional short rows to shape the neck. Directions are included for both short and long sleeved tees.
Add in your own details to make it unique!
Grey (Emma’s Yarn Drapey DK in Elephant) sample is size 4 without short rows at the neck. Your most basic Beautifully Basic.
Rose (Magpie Fibers Swanky DK in Bougie Beaver) sample is size 3 with short rows and a slipped stitch faux side seam (both details included in directions).
