👚 5 knitted shirts to make this summer
We're about midway through the summer and things are still heating up!
So let's look at some knitted shirts to keep you cool as the temperature increases.
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.
Why we love it: We love this pattern for its light, airy feel and effortlessly elegant details. The lace wing motif adds just enough flair, while the breathable linen-cotton blend makes it perfect for warm-weather wear. It’s a fun, quick knit that looks polished and flattering—ideal for social butterflies and summer wardrobes alike.
Why we love it: The lace yoke gives an already lightweight top even more lightness. It's an elegant touch to a beautiful pattern.
Conclusion
