Simple and sweet, this tee takes an ancient pattern, the Old Shale stitch, and puts it to work in a pretty spring and summer top. Mainly worked in a fluffy laceweight, every 13th and 14th rows are worked in a fingering weight yarn. In the sample, these are oddments from my stash, worked in no particular order (though they are matched on back and front, which isn’t a requirement.) Have fun mixing and matching, and using up those tiny bits of precious leftovers, or select a single contrasting yarn for the whole top.
