Inspired by the spring flowers, I named this cute tee Primula. Every spring, I look forward to seeing these pretty little flowers pop up in my garden. The tee is made in one piece from top down and has a seamless construction. The range of ease across all the sizes is ¬¬5-7 cm/2-2.75”. The picture shows size 5 with 6 cm/2.5” of positive ease.

PATTERN NOTES:
• I recommend swatching for the colorwork and if you notice that it is tighter than the stockinette stitch done in one color, please use larger needles for working the colorwork section of your sweater.
• The sweater is worked in one piece top down. You start with the neck band, then work neck shaping with short rows and then continue working in the round. After the round yoke and additional shaping with short rows, you separate the sleeves and the body and continue working them separately.

SKILLS REQUIRED:
• basics (cast on/bind off, knit/purl, increase/decrease)
• short rows
• working in the round
• working from a chart
