The Sol Tee is a special top designed for the Costa Rica retreat. It can be made in a fresh cotton blend for the summer or soft merino and is perfect for layering in the winter. Pair it with a skirt or jeans for a casual or elegant look. Add a bit of flair by doing the boatneck ribbing at the neck in either the main colour or yarn B.
This kit includes Knitting for Olive Cotton Merino and Merino and the pattern (which will be sent through email as a PDF).
