πŸ‘š 5 knitted shirts to make this summer

Things are heating up and summer is officially only a few weeks away.

So let's look at some knitted shirts to keep you cool as the temperature increases.

Here are a few of our favorite patterns...

​Cloverleaf Top by Felecia O'Connell

Why we love it: Simple shapes, clean lines, and lovely lace combine for an elegant top with an approachable, modern feel. With no shaping and a small stitch repeat, even novice lace knitters are just a few seams away from this gorgeous garment.

​

​Big in Japan by Katrin Schneider

Why we love it: With a unique construction, this simple top has plenty to keep you on your toes.

​

​Wavy Summer Cardigan by Oona Kim

Why we love it: This little cardigan takes things to another level with the addition of the drop stitch cap sleeves.

​

​Marigold Tee by Winter's Weather Knits

Why we love it: Sideways construction, lace stripes, and classic silhouette make this one of the most popular patterns on Ravelry right now.

​

​Knotted Pullover by Phanessa Fong

Why we love it: Knit in one piece, this classic fit top is perfect for cool summer evenings.

​

✨ BONUS PICK ✨

​Dorel Tee by Alison Green

Why we love it: The lace yoke gives an already lightweight top even more lightness. It's an elegant touch to a beautiful pattern.

Daily Stitch

Double Lace Rib Stitch

Lace is perfect for summer, and simple tops like the ones above often incorporate stitches like this.

Columns of lace ribbing add both texture and lightness to your fabric.

So you can just sit in the morning sun comfortably with a lovely lace top.

Pattern Pick

Tegan Tee by Sue Gleave

Inspired by the patterns made by sunlight dancing on the surface of the sea, this is a tee to celebrate the return of warmer weather and the expectation of long summer days and of sea and sand.

Gorgeous Milanese lace motifs elevate this spare top to a whole other level of lace luxuriousness.
