The Design

Sometimes, all it takes is a little eyelet detail to dress up the simplest of tees—Lucia is the perfect example! Already elegant with its clean lines and sleek fabric, this short-sleeved tee is enhanced by a delicate pattern of eyelets at the hem and arms. And in a cool plant fiber, Lucia is freshly stylish and fresh against your skin! Designed by Shellie Anderson for Shibui, Lucia is worked holding two strands of fingering-weight, 100% linen Reed together.

This four page pattern includes:

• Full color photography
• A clear sizing/design schematic
• Brief guidelines for binding off in the center of a row, German short rows, sloped bind-off M1 stitch, and the 3-needle bind-off.
