Kevät

*This pattern was originally designed for [Knotty Lamb][1] for the 2021 Rose City Yarn Crawl.* *A big thank you to Knotty Lamb for the ongoing support of the local *knitting community!* *Check out all the RCYC fun [here][3]!* Kevät is a lightweight tee for spring featuring lace and colorwork to keep you engaged as you knit. Worked from the top down, this design is intended to be worn with 6-8” *[15-20 cm]* of positive ease, depending on your personal preference, and can be knit to a cropped or standard length. The sample pictured is knit in the cropped length in a size 3, worn with 8" of positive ease. I used 2 colors of Life In the Long Grass Sport for this design- it is a beautiful, subtly variegated yarn that works so well for showing off both colorwork and lace patterns, as well as being lovely to wear! **MATERIALS:** Yarn Life in the Long Grass Sport 100% Superwash Merino 328 yards [300 m], 100g Colors used in sample C1: Oxidized (grey/brown variegated) C2: Wheat (cream variegated) **Needles** Ribbing: US 3/ *3.25 mm* Main: US 4/ *3.5 mm* **Gauge** 22 sts and 30 rounds over 4” *[10 cm]* in colorwork and lace on main needles after blocking.
