Simple Top Down Tee

Add a touch of sparkle to your summer wardrobe with this joyful, lightweight knitted tee. Worked in Estelle 50 Cotton Lux, a beautful, glittery cotton in a light DK weight, this top is as breezy as it is eye-catching. The Simple Top-Down Tee is knit seamlessly from the neckline to the bottom hem, featuring decorative yarn-over raglan eyelet increases that add a pretty and subtle detail to the shoulders. The split hem provides comfort and movement, while short rows shape the flattering curved hemline that drapes beautifully. The sleeves are picked up and worked in the round. This colourful, easy-to-wear T-shirt brings just the right amount of sparkle to your everyday style.
