Windmill T-shirt

"This is the Windmill T-shirt. It gets its name from the windmill lace stitch at the bottom of the tee. The top is an A-line t-shirt that tucks in at the waist and is cropped to wear with high waisted jeans or over a skirt. The pattern is written for 6 sizes, S-3XL, with Top has 8”-11” positive ease built into the pattern. It is easy to modify to make into more of a tunic top instead of a crop top as well. Sample is knit in Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK which is a DK weight 3 yarn. I picked cotton to make my top because I plan to wear it all summer long. But, if you want to make this top more of a cute short sleeves sweater, feel free to knit it in a yarn that is much warmer."
