32 Market Street Tee
32 Market Street Tee
32 Market Street is a humble tee that packs a big punch. Using fingering weight yarn and a simple construction, with little effort you can create a stunning staple piece for your wardrobe.
The 32 Market Street is a celebration. With the year we’ve had in 2020 and traveling not an option, I created this tee in celebration of my heritage and the activism of Marcus Garvey.
While it might be some time before traveling is back to normal, take a trip to Jamaica with me as you knit.
PATTERN NOTES
32 Market Street is boatneck tee worked in pieced from the bottom up. The back piece is worked in plain stockinette stitch. The front features a fun and simple lace pattern. Once both pieces are complete, seam side and shoulders. Pick up stitches around the armhole opening for the finished sleeve.
