Worked from the bottom up in one long piece and seamed together at the sides, this tee features a stunning panel of crochet-look lace at the back, which widens to create a subtle A-line shape. Minimal shaping is used at the neckline only, making this a wonderful first garment for beginners looking to get their feet wet with a bit of lace.

Ravelry PDF includes both a chart and written instructions for the lace.
