Mariposa Tee

Now available and just in time for warm weather!
 
 
This tee is knit top down, almost entirely in the round.
 
 
While knit completely in stockinette, the fluttery sleeves and pleated waist shaping give this simple piece some extra special details.
 
 
The yarn used is Dream in Color Wisp, a gorgeous Merino and silk blend lace that has a lovely sheen and rich color.
 
Even more, the knit along for this piece is going to be help in my group from now until the end of June. If you join the group and finish the project you will be eligible to win some very special prizes courtesy of Dream in Color.
