Join in our newest Knitalong starting on Easter Sunday, April 20th and running through June 1st! We are making Andrea Mowry’s Hey Sailor! tee, and I am so excited about it! She graciously allowed me to use these gorgeous photos for the listing, and you can purchase the pattern here!
Please leave me a note in the comments telling me which color you want as your MC (the white in Andrea’s top) and the CC (the orange/red in her top).
This adorable tee is worked using mosaic knitting, so all of the colorwork is worked super easily just by slipping stitches. Also, you can knit it cropped (like Andrea is wearing here) or full length - the yarn amounts have been taken from Andrea’s pattern and are explained below.
Kits are in my FAVORITE summer yarn, Fiji Fingering, which is 50% cotton and 50% Merino wool. Fiji is so comfortable to knit and to wear, and it dyes up in a more muted, distressed shade. Choose your color combo of any two permanent KMP colorways - many of my favorites are shown in the photos!
Pre-orders will ship on or before April 14th, 2025.
