Flowers can be bright and flashy or soft and subtle. I was inspired by soft spring pastels, thinking of flowers in woodland shadow where the flowers are both hidden and visible at the same time.

This cotton tee is quick and easy to knit but has the added dimension of shadowy flowers to provide a simple but effective twist.

Worked with two yarns held together, there are lots of opportunities to play with colour, choosing pastels or brights, holding strands of two different colours or both the same.

Make this tee cropped as shown, or, if you prefer, there are suggestions given for three places in which the pattern can be lengthened or shortened.

The armholes are finished with the same folded hem and picot edge to match the body of the tee, but short sleeves can easily be added if you prefer more coverage.

Tip: Be careful of your finishing around the armholes so as not to make them too tight!
