This pattern is the Silence Tee by Ruth Nguyen and it was so pretty. It was a good chance to try a yarn base that was summery in Knit Picks Lindy Chain. We’ve had an extra hot summer here, and that influenced my choice! When I saw the colors available, Rouge and Conch jumped out…
Taking one of my cherished skeins of yarn and making a nice lightweight tee to wear over summer clothes.
