An easy-to-knit cotton and linen tee soft enough for a hammock nap… Our Simple Tee knitting pattern is brimming with laid-back fun! Cast on with June Worsted, our plant-based yarn that somehow looks and knits like wool but feels breezy, cool, and light.

A top-down raglan sweater with just a bit of short-row shaping at the back neck, the Simple Tee is a cinch to knit, all in stockinette stitch and nothing to slow you down.
The effortless rolled edges are neat yet unfussy, as if you cut the sleeves, collar, and hem off your favorite oversized sweatshirt and you love it even more than before!
Joyful to knit and a delight to wear, June Worsted is a plush worsted-weight yarn that’s cool enough to keep wearing as the days lengthen. Made with 70% organically grown cotton and 30% Belgian linen, this super endearing yarn has a pleasing, slightly earthy character. After a machine wash and dry, the already soft fabric gets even softer, taking on a gently brushed, lived-in look that will get better and better!

Pick from June Worsted's palette of colors, including rich jewel tones and sun-kissed shades, and cast on for this easy, satisfying knit, so cute you’ll wear it straight off the needles and all summer (and year!) long!
