Firefly Hill is a perfect tee for long summer nights or early fall days. The lacy sleeves provide a touch of elegance, while the stockinette body is a great canvas for a long gradient or a gorgeous solid, semi-solid, or variegated yarn. I used a fingering weight yarn for my sweater so that I can wear it spring, summer, and fall.

This pullover is worked seamlessly in the round from the bottom up with raglan decreases to shape the shoulders. The lacy pattern on the sleeves is briefly repeated at the hem, framed in garter stitch. The body of the sweater has a gentle A-line shape and is meant to be worn with 0-2 inches / 0-5 cm of positive ease at the upper chest. A scoop neckline is finished off with a simple garter-stitch collar.
