June by Julie Weisenberger

Craft: Knitting

This pattern is available on Ravelry.

June is as comfortable and effortless as a T-shirt, but with an elevated bubble-sleeved silhouette. It has a relaxed fit but plenty of shaping to keep it flattering. Because it’s worked from the top down, you can easily play with the length.
