Description
Embodying relaxed comfort, the Primavera Tee is straightforward in its elegance. This oversized tee is all about easy wearing, designed with a focus on loose, airy comfort. It features a stockinette stitch interspersed with an eyelet lace pattern at the hem and cuffs, adding a touch of detailed finesse. The twisted rib at the neck and sleeve edges provide a neat, tailored finish, ensuring the tee retains its shape.
Crafted in The Fibre Co.’s Luma, a practical yet luxurious blend of merino wool, organic cotton, linen, and silk, the tee guarantees softness and durability. Luma’s adaptability to fluctuating temperatures makes the Primavera Tee a versatile choice, especially welcoming as the warmth of Spring begins to blossom. It's a fulfilling knit, promising a timeless piece that pairs functionality with casual elegance.
This pattern is also available as a kit, that includes the PDF pattern and 7–14 hanks of Luma yarn.
