Landscape Tee Free Crochet Pattern

I’m so happy to share my newest free crochet pattern with you - the Landscape Tee! This project is yet another pattern created in collaboration with Handspun Hope and features their beautiful Handspun Hope DK yarn. (You can read more about the collaboration here. Other patterns in the collection can be found here. There’s even a free knitting pattern here!)

The Landscape Tee free crochet pattern includes instructions for NINE sizes and features a fresh, modern silhouette. I love how much movement the wide sleeves allow. Talk about comfort! Short sleeves make it a warm-weather staple but a change in fiber choice would adapt it to be a fun wardrobe addition for cooler months as well.

The Landscape Tee has a few intermediate crochet techniques. Which makes it the perfect opportunity for beginners to stretch their skills! And short sleeves mean you are off Sleeve Island in a jiffy.

Let’s fill the world with more handmade beauty. Happy crocheting!
