Venilia was the ancient Roman goddess of the winds and the sea. She was the one who brought waves to the shore.

The Venilia tee is knitted seamlessly from the top down, beginning at the neckband. A beautiful lace pattern is worked on the yoke. The sleeves and body are separated at the underarm and knitted separately. The back is shaped with short rows to give it a bit more length and to improve the fit.
