Description

Designed by Kay Hopkins, the Starburst Tee features a stunning yet deceptively simple lace motif that radiates from a wide neckline. The hybrid yoke construction begins with a circular yoke—perfect for effortless lacework—and subtly transitions to raglan shaping for a flattering fit. Worked top-down and in the round, this seamless design offers a polished finish with minimal effort, while clever short row shaping refines the fit around the neck. Optional shaping for an angled hemline allows you to add a bit of length in the back, which is flattering on many figure types and makes for comfortable wearing. Perfect over linen skirts, casual denim, or layered under your favorite cardigan, this tee offers timeless versatility and effortless charm.

This kit includes The Fibre Co. Road to China Light, a luxurious sport-weight blend of baby alpaca, silk, camel, and cashmere that brings out the best in this design. With a fluid drape and soft halo, it enhances the delicate lace detail and delivers a lightweight yet warm fabric that transitions beautifully across seasons. It's excellent stitch definition highlights the starburst motif, while the silky softness ensures comfort against the skin.
