    About Grassland

    Grassland's lime colour and the flowery, leafy lace panel on the front recall sunny spots between the clouds shining on the freshly mown green land and early autumn feelings in my home surroundings. I live in a meadow landscape with a small lake, where I walk, run, and bike and let my daydreams flow.

    This tee has a seamless top-down construction with dropped shoulders and short sleeves. With its slightly cropped and oversized look, it is a beautiful slip-over on cooler summer evenings and autumn days. The shoulders are shaped with short rows, and, after joining the front and back pieces, the tee is knitted in the round with a faux seam at the sides. Worked in Gepard Wild & Soft held together with Kid Seta, Grassland has a casual and cosy style.

      Needles
