- Enough yarn to knit your chosen size sweater in your chosen colors
Luminos Tee is knitted from the bottom with an alternative garter tab cast-on. Increases are made (similar to shawl knitting) until the folded triangle reaches half the width of the tee. A second similar piece is made and both pieces make the bottom wedges of the tee. In smaller sizes, 2 chevrons join the pieces in the round until the underarm length is reached. The chevrons are divided to be worked straight separately for the front and the back until the armhole depth is reached. In larger sizes, the bottom wedges are divided for front and back, then each piece is joined with a chevron to be worked separately with armhole shaping until the armhole depth is reached. The front and back shoulders are joined for decreases in the round until the neck width is reached. 2x2 ribbing completes the V-neck. Shoulder details are added using surface chain stitches, and armhole finishing is completed using the same strand of yarn from the surface chain.
As the neck band is knitted continuously from the shoulders instead of being knitted after picking up stitches creating a “seam”, the tee is seamless and totally reversible. If you weave in ends neatly on the inside, it is reversible inside / outside. You can enjoy a different look with the reverse stockinette side. If you use a variegated yarn that creates a different look on the front and back, or if you get creative making your own stripe patterns that are different on the front and back, the tee is reversible front / back.
Have fun creating color combinations, paring a main yarn with your special single skein of yarn.
