Tiny Triangles Tee
The Tiny Triangles Tee by Annie Lupton
The Tiny Triangles Tee is a colorwork tee worked in 8 colors. Rows of little triangles line up in different color combinations to create the overall fabric, giving it a subtle striping effect. The loose fit, wide neckline, and boxy drop shoulder shape make it comfortable to wear and easy to mix and match in your wardrobe.

CONSTRUCTION NOTES:
The Tiny Triangles Tee is knit in stranded colorwork from the bottom-up in the round. At the armholes the front and back are worked separately, flat. German short rows are used for the shoulder shaping and a three needle bind off is worked for seaming the shoulders together. Stitches are picked up and a simple edging is worked on the neckline and sleeves.
