Groupie is an easy to wear T-shirt designed for the amazingly soft and luxurious yarn On stage by Nature’s Luxury. Wearing the softness next to your skin, it’s all about texture, colour and silky shine, that gets you into raptures and being a groupie :)

Kits for Groupie, including the free pattern, are available at Nature’s Luxury

The samples are shown in Marsia baila (red) and Sunny (orange)

The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down.
The neck is shaped with short rows before you work the dropped saddle shoulder by increasing along the shoulder markers. When you reach the body width, you work the back and front separately for the length of the armhole. Then you join front and back and work the body in rounds down to the bottom.
After the body is completed, you pick up the sleeve stitches to work the sleeves in the round.
