Class Spotlight | Tulipan Tee
We love this essential warm weather tee that just gets better and better with wear! Designed using one of our favorite cotton / linen blend yarns - Sandnes Garn Line, the Tulipan Tee (Le Knit) has a relaxed fit that flatters a multitude of body types and short sleeves (that aren’t too short!). The tee is worked seamlessly in the round, from the neck hem down. The increases are hidden in a lovely lace patterned yoke.
While many aspects of this sweater are beginner-friendly, the short row portion and lace knitting are both class worthy! The sessions will be structured so that the more challenging portions will be tackled during class, with stretches of simple stockinette in the round for you to work on at home.
