The plan to make Heart Warmer Tee seemed like a must. It’s a next of kin to Heart Warmer Cowl & Shawl but this time in the form of a fun-to-make and cute-to-wear top.
 
Heart Warmer Tee is worked in the round, from top to bottom. The yoke is shaped with numerous increases incorporated in the sections. The top is worked in a fun variety of stitch patterns. After dividing the body from the sleeves, you work in the round down to the ribbed hem. The short sleeves are worked last. They are worked in the round and finished with ribbed hem to match the body.
