Greyish

Greyish is a linen tee with a drop shoulder and a lace panel on the front and the back. It is worked seamlessly from the bottom up in the round to the armholes. Front and back are then separated and rejoined at the shoulders using a Three-Needle BO. So, no sewing is required.
Greyish is your best companion on hot summer days. It can easily be combined with jeans for a casual look as well with a glamourous skirt or dress and high heels for a night out.
If you don‘t like short sleeves – it‘s easy to pick up stitches around the armhole and add long sleeves.

Everybody knits differently, so given yardage is an estimate.
GAUGE
23 sts x 32 rows = 4” / 10 cm in Stockinette Stitch with US 3 / 3.25 mm needle after washing and blocking
22 sts x 32 rows = 4“ / 10 cm in Lace Pattern with US 3 / 3.25 mm needle after washing and blocking
I highly recommend to knit a swatch and measure it before and after washing to achieve your desired fit of the garment. Linen tends to shrink when washed.
Take time to check gauge and adjust needle size if necessary to obtain gauge.

US 3 / 3.25 mm circular needle
US 2½ / 3.00 mm circular needle
