Another FO: Leaf Tee

I’ve had this project finished for a couple of weeks, but haven’t had a chance to blog about it. For this I used the Brier Run alpaca I got for Christmas, and I think it was a good choice. I’m really into wool/silk blend yarns right now—the silk just gives it extra softness and texture, I think.

This pattern was easy and fun to do. But I did add several mods:

  • I added ribbing on the neck, sleeves, and hem
  • I added sleeves
  • I added vertical bust darts

I think that’s it. I’d definitely knit this again, probably short sleeved, and use it as a layering piece.

I think I like this better with sleeves. Maybe when I finish all my other projects it will be my first item of clothing.
