The Verano Tee is a loose, lace openwork top, perfect for summer knitting. The shirt is meant to be loose fitting and slide off one shoulder, but the boat neck collar can be made smaller for a more conservative look.

This top is worked in two separate identical panels that are seamed together to make a finished garment. The openwork pattern is comprised of three alternating sections consisting of garter stitch, drop stitch, and snowflake lace.

Pattern Difficulty: 3 of 5 (Intermediate)
Techniques used include; simple lace, drop stitches, adding extra stitches, and basic seaming.
