The Let's Picnic Tee is named for Little Lionhead Knits' iconic red/orange colorway called Let's Picnic (which is featured in the stripes of the tee). This tee is inspired by the playfulness of this lively colorway, the fun that is picnicking, and the energy of spring and summer. The Let's Picnic Tee uses slipped stitches to create a richly textured stripe sequence, perfect for stash-busting, leftover yarns, and mini skeins. Because the texture is created entirely with slipped stitches, only one color is worked at a time so there is no stranded colorwork, making this a deceptively simple knit. This tee is worked seamlessly from the top down using raglan increases. The yoke is worked using a compound raglan shape, creating a gentle curve along the raglan lines that follows the contours of your body.
