10 Knit Tees I'm Thinking About Making for Spring! 🌸

[@knitwithjo]

I would add the Tolsta Tee by Rebecca Clow (creabea designs) to this list! It's an awesome basic tee, size inclusive, and comes with so many modification ideas - for dk or fingering-weight, adding lace, texture, colourwork, etc.

[@Theknittingwanderer]

Salty Air is lovely! I just cast on my first T, the Spring Sorrel from Wool and Pine and I’m in love with it so far. I also have yarn to cast on the Bird on a Wire Tee by Bristol Ivy as soon as my Sorrel is off the needles. I’m also eyeing the Este by Justyna Lorkowska!

[@lalaleelou1]

I’m currently knitting a Tolsta tee for MDSW. There are so many mod suggestions that I’m already planning a second one.

[@sharonroehrig772]

Thanks for showing those tees. You did the searching part for me! I was happy to see several people commented on the Rock-it Tee. I’m nearly finished with mine. Used a cotton/linen blend.

[@cathyleonard7845]

I would like to include my favorite Tolsta Tee by Rebecca Clow. Perfect fit, so many options….great tee.

[@maureendesmarais6955]

I LOVE Sea Glass Tee. I've already knit 3 of them!!

[@joanmather7218]

Interesting to read what other people's tee choices are. The one I made last year was the Why Knot? by Rachel Illsley from her 'macrame' collection. I loved doing the texture though it was challenging. I made the Oakhaven Tee and have the Ridgeview Tee in my faves, both by Kerri Blumer.

[@annabellavampirella]

I've been knitting the Fosette Crop and using Doodle charts instead of here colorwork. Fun.😊

[@Drjoyce3860]

My Boy Lollipop in DK is perfect for newer sweater knitters, really easy directions by Nancy Ricci and a quick knit. I am knitting the Poppy tee, simple and cute. Other favorites are the rock it Tee and the bird watcher. Salty air is in my queue.

[@margaretbehar8037]

I love the Salt Air Tee. I'll be getting that pattern soon. I also love the Sea Glass Tee. I've had that pattern since I saw it on your VLOG. I plan on making it with scraps from sock knitting!

[@Oldorcuttyarnery]

Love the Rock-it Tee by Tannis Lavalie - I’ve made it three times!

[@jane8760]

I have that pattern and yarn for that tee but for some reason I keep messing up the raglans! It’s trying to do yarn overs etc with the mohair 😢 I have frogged it 4x now.

[@craftsywendy]

I am working on the Proserpina Top by Expression Fiber Arts. It has a little bit of lace. So it wouldn’t be overwhelming for beginners.

[@photogchik007]

Currently working on the Tolsta tee and loving it!

[@carb101]

I’ve made 2 Tolsta tees and think the pattern is terrific and very versatile.

[@CassieDA17]

I’ve been swatching this week for the Rift. I have several of the ones you mentioned in my ravelry favorites. Last year I knitted the Suri Shirt by Caidree and really like it

[@dianecerny1202]

I am knitting the Easy Eyelet Yoke Lite Sweater in sport weight and love the easy pattern!

[@createmesanity]

I’ve been wanting to make the Rumble Raglan for ages, I’ve just been waiting to find a color combo that I know I’ll be happy with. A few people have mentioned how great the Tolsta Tee by Rebecca Clow is and I wholeheartedly agree. The pattern comes with both fingering and dk weight options as well as options for customization.

[@elenabeyers2088]

I have some of these in my favorites. I’m about to cast on the Moon Set Tee. I love the crossed V neck on the front. I’m looking fir one that has an icord neck finish together with a folded hem . I would like to learn some new techniques.

[@melitacarder]

Such a hard ask!! I have 6 of these in my queue and am knitting a Sea glass sweater atm. So it’s really hard to choose. For me either the salty air or the outline tee might be my next ones. 💚

[@karenjordan1822]

I have these in my favorites… Green Machine Satawai Seven Senses Uptown Tee Sway Line Slipover Peacock Tee Solo Joni Peep Show Pullover Lots of ideas!

[@roos7631]

I love this kind of video so much inspiration and love the background! I just finsihed a Cumulus Tee by Petit Knit and it's amazing, I already had one and I'm planning on making an other one, she just came with a round neck version instead of a v neck. I think it's the best and basic tee that is out there🥰

[@TheHarryKnit]

I made the Rift Tee last year and I absolutely love it but my fave tee has to be Jessie Mae's So Summer Shirt pattern. It's so comfy and it's the one I wear the most often

[@RunWithHooksNYarn]

I am making a rift now!!! As my first tee. But I am doing the bottom ribbing in the round and not split. :))

[@lindacrockett4702]

My favorites are the first one you showed and the last one with lace. I’m almost finished with my Rock it Tee which I did in a silk linen blend. Written for size 32-68” bust

[@BeautyNookbyLauren]

I’m getting ready to cast on the Staple Tee from New Wave Knitting! Her patterns are so cool - they use a custom pdf that you insert your measurements and gauge into and it does all the math for you, so you can make any size using any gauge! So great for stash busting 🥳🥳🥳

[@UVEyal]

I just casted on my skyline tee! so far its great LOL. would love to see you knit it!

[@heatherhuntley4955]

I casted on Tori Yu’s Brooklyn Raglan Lite just before the Skyline Tee was released. I love her simple clean style!

[@ruthmcniff4765]

Hi! I’m voting for the Color Tip Tee. Many of the other patterns that you mentioned have been popular with podcasters. This would be different and hopefully practical for daily wear.

[@maumaumoi]

I'm currently making the sea glass tee with a white yarn throughout and scraps for two rounds alternating every round light and dark colour.

[@alisavanrooyen1030]

I really like the skyline top,quill tee and salty air tee...I think I may add all 3 to my list of to do. I recently made Joji Locatelli's Elton pullover,but made it short sleeve. Currently I am making the Rock it Tee by Tanis Fiber Arts. Thanks for sharing!

[@TheStaceyC]

I love the Tolsta Tee pattern! I made one last summer and there is a fingering and DK weight version. Would recommend!

[@lavendercottagefibrearts]

At first glance, Lydia's patterns might seem expensive but most of them include additional instructions to add bust shaping depending on your cup size and sometimes hip shaping if it's a longer garment to achieve a better fit. When you consider the amount of work that goes into incorporating that into the pattern I think it's well worth it.

[@EvieO1950]

Love the salty air and want to add the quill to my favs!!

[@larajean1]

I've made the Salty Air top and I love it. I'm thinking of making another one but also thinking about doing the Pine Crop also from Samantha Guerin. For basic t patterns...I love the Tolsta Tee by Rebecca Clough and I made a short sleeve version of Jessie Mae "Cozy Classic Lite" that really fits so well... I also love one called the Peacock Tee and have made two...black and a kinda terracotta... great basics for summer and really quick knits.

[@karenhattiberries9158]

I have the rift and outline tees in my queue so will also be making those this spring - I like a V neck so you don't get so many designs to chose from !

[@sarahwenger1284]

Not to confuse your decision making, but I started the Tolsta tee this weekend! It’s got cute customization options and it’s my first raglan pattern and going well

[@petragrund6730]

The Este tee is very lovely, just finished mine 😍, now I'm making the Nila tee/sweather , you can choose with or without sleeves, so nice. Happy knitting, Petra

[@Theknittingwanderer]

Este is in my queue!

[@Baghwanita]

Love the quill, its now in my que togheter with Vellichor

[@emmalizfisher]

I’m currently making the alpine bloom tee by Borland knitworks atm and I’d like to cast on the cumulus tee by petite knit next!

[@melanievandenbrink3967]

I've been wanting to knit the Salty Air Tee ever since I saw Bethany show it off in The Wandering Purl.

[@peggyisme]

I am testing the size 8 of Emily's Tee, I have just had a few health issues. It is a great pattern and sizing is pretty spot on.

[@amyj9907]

I made the Color Tip Tee last summer and I’ve worn it a ton! It’s a great pattern.

[@marilynknits]

I enjoyed seeing your list of tees. I really love the look of the Salty Air Tee. I have the pattern and the yarn. I just need to cast on.

[@haleynh]

Yay, I mentioned Rift when you asked about tee patterns - it’s my favorite and I’m so happy it made the list!

[@leslienero7884]

Skyline is on my list! The rift one looks good too, might have to add it. I made another Samantha G's Pampas tee last year, which is another lace yoke tee, and I'm looking forward to wearing it this year. I finished it at the start of fall last year. I was going to do the Salty Air, but then I saw the Pampas. Perhaps this year will be the Salty Air. Also like the Quill. Decisions!!

[@joannekon545]

Love the Salty Air Tee!

[@siobhanyamada-gu8dr]

Most of these are also in my favorites on Ravelry as options for my Spring make. 😊 I’ve also got Ursina as a top contender.

[@yarnmotivated]

The Twisted Tee is right up my alley.

[@laulauruns2knit]

My pick would be the Skyline Tee. I love the sleeve details and the length. I like your idea of knitting it in a speckle too!

[@nancyprinsze2211]

I already plan on making Sea Glass this summer and I love Salty Air, Skyline, and Twisted Tee. Thank you for another great video. 💖

[@heathertucker7056]

A tee is my next project so this video came at the perfect time! Thank you so much for all the research you must have done to produce this video for us. I can’t decide yet which one but I’ll now check out the patterns more closely. Safe travels x

[@tinablair4277]

I'm knitting the Willa tee. Super easy and quick. Very enjoyable.😊

[@72tribalgirl]

Thank you for a lovely videoI love all of them! Found a few more to add to my list 😊 I have made the Petit Jardin by Anne B Hanssen (pattern is on Ravelry). It's a pretty round yoke tee with some fun texture stitches. I made it in a silk merino blend ❤️

[@ErynnMann]

Terrific round up of tees. Good luck picking. I’m excited to see which one you choose. I like the first one. Simple with some extra details on the shoulders.

[@KnittyNatty]

Thanks! Yeah I’m hoping some yarn will call to me and help me decide 😅

[@MySweetT1]

I am currently working on the Slightly Sassy V tee by Aimee Sher. The shoulder shaping fits wonderfully and the pattern includes bust darts if needed and directions or eliminating bust shaping if required.

[@kristinahill3708]

Fun list! I will be starting the Summer Sorrell soon.

[@Theknittingwanderer]

I just started a Spring Sorrel, which I’m loving, but I also have yarn waiting to start a Summer Sorrel also!

[@msdraeneichick]

I have about 5 of these on my upcoming makes list! But I think I'll be adding 1-2 that you shared as well I'd like to suggest Rock It T by Tanis, if you haven't checked that one out yet!

[@RetroMinnie87]

I love the Color Tip Tee. I think I may have to knit that one!

[@Jessd85]

Love all of these!

[@karenmiller1665]

Thank you so much for putting this together. I have the yarn for the salty air tea and will be casting that on in the next few days.

[@Determinedknitter]

I really love the color tip tee. I think it might be my next knit

[@gypsyqueencrafts36]

Thank you Natalie. I love the salty air tee. I am going to look for the pattern right away. I think any of those would suit you well. Have a great day. Hx 💕🧶🧵🇬🇧

[@valeriejohnson1043]

Lotus by Sarah Bleau Design is a fun knit with a lace yoke. Size range is 34”-54

[@sharbear1968]

I love the outline T. Very similar to the streamline tank by Alexandra Tavel. I’m obsessed with the Venlo Top by Mieka John and Notched Hem Tank by Purl SoHo but think I’m going to try the Cumulus T by PetiteKnit for my first knit wearable. Any insight into any of these for beginners in knit from anyone would be welcomed.

[@Angieloves2crochetandknit]

I love all these suggestions. I want to design a tunisian tee. Hey is that torrey ut? Thousand lakes csmpground or something like that? Fun ideas. More added to my list to make.

[@GlitchyFibers]

Thank you for being size inclusive in your search

[@KnittyNatty]

I do my best!

[@KnitsByNayla]

Sunshine Tee by Andrea Gaughan is an amazing fit. I’m wearing mine right now and pattern will be out this week. She also has a really cool make along for it getting ready to start.

[@spunNstitched]

I’ve seen it and can’t wait to grab the pattern!

[@24567423ify]

I’ve knit three of those. I test knit the Skyline tee in cotton. Of the three I made, I like the fit of the Salty Air best, but don’t like having to wear a cami underneath. My best fitting tee of all time is the Classic LBD by Jennifer Parroccini. She’s a master at fit. I’m knitting the Slightly Sassy V right now.

[@KnittyNatty]

Ooh thank you for these!

[@lizellinger4336]

This video could not have come at a better time! I’m in the middle of looking for a summer tee and immediately fell in love with the very first pattern you shared! ❤

[@KnittyNatty]

Hooray!! That’s such a good one ☺️

[@wendyshaw8886]

Love the seaglass tee!

[@KnittyNatty]

Such a great one!

[@teresauplinger1601]

I like them all and they would look adorable on you. Im not a knitter..tremor issues. But i crochet. I love watching your journeys and your art. I always wanted to learn to knit but its okay i can still crochet. Hug Toaster for me🫠.

[@KnittyNatty]

Aww thank you! I love crochet too!

[@theneonknitter472]

Some other patterns you should look into are: Ali’s Tee by Sarah Opie (this pattern is DK weight, but there is a fingering weight version available) Salt Marsh Cove by Laura Aylor Sun Tea by Laura Aylor Rays of Sun Tee by Paula Pereira Duet by Kristen Finlay Bright Axis by Stephanie Lotven

I'm test knitting the movement tee by lily kate france. Classy striped tee in dk weight

[@arianesmith9997]

I need a tee pattern I can make in cotton/and or linen. I live in very hot summer weather. Any suggestions would be great. It’s hot here already so maybe sport or DK for a quick knit Thanks

[@austinscraftcorner]

omg please do a challenge and try to make a freeform sweater with no pattern

[@theneonknitter472]

I’ve already made a twisted tea shirt

[@KnittyNatty]

Nice! Do you wear it a lot?

[@lucyinthesky9479]

Great video! Just a heads up that GBP doesn't stand for Great British pounds - it's just pounds, or the pound sterling 🙂

[@KnittyNatty]

Whatttt? Why is the GB there though? 😩 This is news to me. Thank you explaining!

[@lucyinthesky9479]

@@KnittyNatty No worries at all, it is a bit confusing and strange! It's basically just to do with the currency code for the UK being GB. It totally makes sense to assume that is stands for great British pounds but, weirdly, it doesn't! Northern Ireland isn't part of Great Britain but uses the currency GBP/pounds sterling, which is maybe a helpful way to remember it... although I appreciate it's still confusing 🤣

[@KnittyNatty]

Next you’re going to tell me that the UK isn’t a country! (this is a joke 😆) Thank you so much for the explanation! I’ll correct it next time!
