This Tee was inspired by the luxurious yarn and its beautiful soft sheen. Ziggy is a top down construction with a raw edge neckline and a very easy to memorize zig zag lace pattern, meant to be worn with 6 – 8 inches / 15 – 20 cm of positive ease. I wanted to keep this design very minimal to let the beauty of the yarn shine through. This will be my go-to everyday tee during the warm summer months! - Andrea
