Summer Sorrel

I’m continuing my bright, happy colours themed posts.

This sweater is called Summer Sorrel from Wool & Pine (Pattern purchased on Ravelry.)

Summer Sorrel is a charming short-sleeved tee for effortless everyday wear. We made quite a few changes from the original Sorrel including a flattering wide-neck featuring a beautiful I-cord collar, deeper dips, short rows at the back of the neckline for a comfortable fit and a loose casual drape using one-strand of fingering weight yarn. 

We also changed up the way the increases are worked and omitted the twisted purls! Suffice it to say, there’s plenty of NEW to keep your needles happy and entertained! 

Construction: Knit seamlessly top-down in the round, the body of the tee is worked inside out for the ease of working in knitted stockinette stitch rather than purling! 

Get Creative! Dive into your stash, Summer Sorrel looks beautiful in your favorite color or faded, our stashbusting sample used 3 colors for a gorgeous summery fade! 

Pattern includes written and charted instructions as well as video tutorialsand written explanations for special stitches.




This pattern is size inclusive. 

I put together some combinations. Three skeins will make the first six sizes. If you are making a larger size then you will need to add another colour.
