Lavina

If you're searching for a delightful and simple lace knitting pattern, look no further than the Lavina summer tee! This charming tee showcases a lovely lace design that is easy to knit and perfect for warm weather. The lace pattern is thoughtfully crafted to occur every other row, making it exceptionally friendly for knitters of all skill levels. With straightforward stitch and row repeats, this pattern is easy to memorize, allowing you to enjoy the soothing rhythm of knitting.

The Lavina tee is uniquely designed to be worked in the round, eliminating the need for side shaping, which makes it versatile and comfortable to wear. To give the garment a playful twist, I incorporated fun “sleeves” by adding a few stitches in a classic 1x1 rib pattern along each armhole. This little detail elevates the overall look and feel of the tee, making it a delightful addition to any summer wardrobe.

The sample shown here was skillfully knit using Tern by Quince & Co., in the lovely shade of Oyster, perfectly highlighting the intricate lace work. To ensure you achieve the desired fit and drape, a precise gauge of 20 stitches and 30 rounds = 4" in lace pattern (when blocked) is recommended.

If you're interested in trying out this beautiful stitch pattern, I've suggested an excellent substitute yarn below that will work beautifully. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting your crafting journey, the Lavina tee is an enjoyable project that combines elegance with ease, making it a must-knit for your summer collection.
