Dot Tee
Welcome warmer weather with Dot Tee, named for its fun fabric – an easy 2x2 rib with a yarn-over skip. This design is hip length with waist shaping created from gradual decreases, then increases, tucked into vertical purl stripes along each side. Its neckline is a wide crew from picked up stitches that continue the rib repeat of its bodice lace. You’ll find two sleeve length options – a short cap and a three-quarter – for multi-season wear-ability. Worked bottom up, bodice is worked in the round until the armholes where it splits, and then worked flat, back and forth. Sleeves are worked in the round as well, and set in.
It’s a fun knit, enjoy!
