Yarn Kit – Summer Light Tee by Julie Knits in Paris

Tried and tested, and absolutely adored by the KWA team. A firm summer favourite, several of us have a version of the Summer Light Tee in their wardrobe (some of us even in a few different ones). A delightful little summer project, a fun quick knit that happily can be done again and again.

Right now we are drooling over the potential possibilities in combining the magical hand-dyed marl, entirely unique to RiverKnits, Chimera (Yarn B) with the glorious, voluptuous Suri Cloud (Yarn B) from the steaming dyeing pots of Black Elephant.

Summer Light is a cropped fluffy tee, light as a Summer Breeze, that can be worn as a teasingly see-through top or as a shoulder-covering layer over your favourite dress or top. This tee is worked in the round from the top down and features raglan increases for a quick and easy Summer knit.

Sizes 1 – 7 with finished chest circumference : 98 (108, 118, 128, 138, 148, 158)cm / 38.5 (42.5, 46.5, 50.5, 54.5, 58.5, 62.5)” including ca. 20 cm / 8” of positive ease.

We've done the maths for you, so according to your size the Summer Light Tee Yarn Kit contains all the yarn you need to make your very own tee, and it can be bought with or without the pattern.
In addition you'll need circular needles size 4mm / US6, 80cm / 32” length for working magic loop, or preferred needles for smaller circumferences.
You'll also need 5mm / US8 circular needle, 80cm / 32” length, and preferred needles for smaller circumferences if not using magic loop, stitch markers and a darning needle for weaving in your ends.
