Summer Sweater Pattern

Summer Sweater Pattern

The Summer Sweater is the second design in the Kelbourne Woolens Year of Sweaters. This knit tee shirt pattern is designed in our perfect lightweight summer yarn, Mojave, a crisp and cool blend of cotton and linen.

The Summer Sweater is as fun to knit as it is to wear – Courtney had so much fun designing this one! With breezy lace sleeves and a soft V-neck shape, Courtney based the design loosely on Elizabeth Zimmermann’s popular Hurry-Up-Last-Minute Sweater (aka the December Sweater) from Knitter’s Almanac, but with summer fun in mind. This lightweight summer t-shirt is worked in the round from the top-down so you can choose to go cropped or knit it longer for more coverage.
