“Who doesn’t love and need the comfort and simplicity of a long sleeved, crew neck T-shirt? Especially a T-shirt enhanced with a Lattice Pattern Stitch for textural detail. This fun-to-knit lace stitch creates an interesting border that contrasts with the Stockinette Stitch of the body fabric. The garment’s silhouette is slightly A-lined in both Sleeves and Body, adding a bit of ease below the waist, for a casual, comfortable fit.
Loft is the perfect yarn for this design, offering a weight that transcends seasons. Corrina is suitable for a cool Midsummer’s Night or layered among others of its kind for a cold Winter’s Tale. Either way, it is highly wearable – whether layered casually or more pulled together with a cashmere sweater and a necklace framing its center neckline detail.” – Ann McCauley
CONSTRUCTION
- Garment is worked in 4 flat pieces: Front, Back and two Sleeves.
- The neck edging is picked up and knit onto the garment after it has been seamed.

Finished Gauge: 24 stitches & 37 rows = 4” in all stitch patterns with Gauge Needle; measurement taken from relaxed fabric after light blocking (with slight stretch)
NEEDLES
One pair of straight needles (or circulars, if preferred) and one 16” circular needle in size needed to obtain gauge

Note: You may find a sharper-tipped needle or stiletto tip helpful for working the Lattice Pattern Stitch with its yarn overs and decreases
