Floret Tee
Designed by Universal Yarn Design Team
The Floret Tee is a cute little top featuring a motif reminiscent of little spring flowers. Choose a subdued, pastel palette like the one pictured, or go for bold, bright colors. Knit in Wool Pop, a blend of bamboo, wool, and nylon, this would be a great layering piece during the cooler months or worn on its own during warmer days.

PATTERN NOTES
This tee Is worked in the round from the bottom up. The Front and Back are separated at the underarm, and stitches are cast-on for the sleeves. Then the Front and Back are worked flat. Stitches are picked up and worked in the round for the neck and sleeve edging. In this pattern, work all slipped stitches purlwise.
When working in Little Flowers in the round, do not break yarn at each color change. Instead, carry the unused color up the inside of the work and twist the yarn around one another at each color change to prevent holes. When working Little Flowers Flat, break CC1 and CC2 at the end of Rows 1 and 5. You may wish to weave in your ends as you go to save time.
