Rigmor Tee

The Rigmor Tee is a feminine, relaxed-fit tee with a delicate lace pattern running through both the body and sleeves — a detail that elevates a simple silhouette into something truly special. Worked bottom-up in the round with raglan yoke shaping, the sleeves are knitted separately in the round before being joined. Stitches are bound off for the neck opening, then picked up at the end for a neat ribbed neck edge. The lace chart is included at the end of the pattern.

With 7–10 cm of positive ease, the Rigmor Tee has a relaxed, airy fit that works beautifully in a fine cashmere or a wool-blend DK.
