Immerse yourself in the colors of fall with the Leaf Peeping Tee. Featuring a boxy, relaxed shape, this stylish tee is very simple to construct: Two identical rectangles are seamed together at the sides and shoulders, then ribbing is added to the hem and armhole openings. Three-color linen stitch—a deceptively easy pattern to work—gives the garment texture while allowing you to play with color.

NOTES
-
This tee is constructed from two identical body panels to which a ribbed hem is added. The hems are left open at the sides for a relaxed fit.
-
To change colors, work to the last yarnover in the old color, pick up the new color, and complete the stitch with the new color.
-
Do not fasten off each color at the end of the row. Carry the color up as the work progresses.
