It started slow...
And at first, I wasn't really sure how I felt about working with Linen yarn. But, slowly the project began to take form...
Until I had a substantial piece and could really start to understand the beauty of linen fabric.
And then came time for sleeves:
Which admittedly took longer than they should have.
But then, sweet completion!
And this fit!

This summer my linen tee has been getting much wear. It's true what they say about linen- softer with each wash/wear. It's beauty truly lies in its drape and feel, which only grows softer and comfier with each wear.
Here's the inspiration tee with the handknit tee- math is a beautiful thing, my friends!
And for those wondering: yes- I will be writing up a pattern, but not immediately. It will be something I work on this winter for release early spring. There are some other projects taking my time these days- more on that soon... 😉

ReplyDeleteI have made 2 summer tops with flax. Miley Tee is super but I am at a standstill on the other. Seams to finish and I want them to be sturdy. Will give it a go. Will you be publishing your pattern? It is lovely.

So lovely! I might even try it once you write up a pattern, and I never have any luck with lace - but this looks like it might be doable.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! Please hurry with your pattern. This top is PERFECT for summer!
