Knitting Kit - La Tulipe Tee by miir_knits

Pattern not included - you must purchase the pattern on Ravelry here. 

Pattern available in English. 

The La Tulipe Summer Tee is a light and airy sweater, knitted from the top down with lace raglan lines.

It features a beautiful wave-shaped lace pattern, a lace border at the neckline, and a back opening.

Add a pretty vintage button of your choice to the back opening to complete the feminine silhouette.

The pattern is knitted with a light 100% cashmere.

The sleeve length can be modified to achieve a ¾ or long-sleeved version.

CONSTRUCTION

This pattern is knitted from the top down.

The back remains open for approximately 15 cm, and increases are made along the raglan lines to shape and separate the armholes.

The La Tulipe Tee features a pattern that continues on the wrong side of the work as well. For this reason, I recommend knitting the La Tulipe Sweater first, which is constructed with a circular yoke and whose pattern is created only on the right side, making it much easier to knit.
