Crown Tee Hawthorne

This stunning lace yoke tee elevates a simple garment into an exquisite piece that appears much more complex than it truly is. Featuring a plain stockinette body, this tee is incredibly easy to customize for a perfect fit. As long as your stitch count matches one of the specified sizes when you reach the yoke, you have the flexibility to adjust the body dimensions effortlessly.

What essential skills do you need to knit this elegant tee? You should be comfortable working in the round and mastering the basics of knitting and purling. Additionally, you’ll need to know techniques like k2tog, k3tog, p2tog, yarn over, ssk, s2tog-k1-p2sso, and grafting (or an alternative seam for the underarm where the sleeve meets the body). If you wish, you can add nupps for texture, though they are optional and can easily be omitted or substituted with beads, giving you creative freedom in your design.

This beautiful lace yoke tee was originally crafted using Knit Picks Hawthorne yarn, known for its smooth texture and vibrant colors. However, almost any smooth sock yarn will serve as a suitable replacement, allowing you to personalize your project according to your own taste and style. Whether you are an experienced knitter or just starting on your knitting journey, this lightweight tee is a perfect project to showcase your skills and creativity.
