Linaceae is the linen t-shirt of my dreams. With an easy-to-wear cut, neither too tight nor too loose, it will definitely be a staple in your summer wardrobe. It is knitted from the top down with a clever construction that gives it a flattering cut at the shoulders.


This pattern was designed to showcase a linen yarn, a perfect summer fiber because it stays cool on the skin. You can also use any summer fiber, whether cotton or silk, to knit this model.
