Crown Tee

A highly detailed lace tee. Ever wanted to use nupps and lace on something other than a shawl?

Knit in the round, from the bottom up. The hems are all faced, using the same yarn. The body is primarily mindless straight knitting, and then you transition into the lace for the yoke. This sweater has the best of both worlds!

While you only need two skeins for the first three sizes (28, 32, 36), it is a good idea to buy an extra skein so you can rotate between them if you run into any bad pooling. In my sweater, I needed to keep switching between three balls to kill the pooling that wanted to go on. The pattern is written out line by line, and has a chart of the lace yoke. It also includes photos of stitching down the facings, and a schematic.
