  • Palm Oasis - T-Shirt

    Palm Oasis is inspired by the majestic palm trees at the water's edge in Hawaii. As they blow gently in the breeze, they embody a sense of peace and strength that is reflected in the textured lace yoke and the elegant cables running down the body of this tee.

    Palm Oasis is knit bottom up and in the round. The round yoke's lace texture is easy to memorize and stunning to look at. The body and sleeves are started with a Provisional Cast-On, worked in a cable pattern and finished with a lace hem that mirrors the yoke.
