Seaside Disco T

€6.50

Put on your glitter eyeshadow and meet me by the pier. For tonight, we disco!

Indulging early 1980s nostalgia whilst sporting a contemporary silhouette, the Seaside Disco T is a simple and very adaptable pattern. A basic drop-shoulder top with optional button details, this design lends itself to a variety of sleeve and neckline options, and can easily 
be modified to suit any yarn weight and gauge. 



As a summer wardrobe staple, the Seaside Disco T is ideal in cotton, linen, and 
silk blend yarns. It can also work in woollen blends for the colder season, as a sleeveless vest 
or as a pullover.

The Seaside Disco T pattern includes traditional instructions for knitting this garment at a sportweight-light DK gauge. In addition, an Appendix offers recipe-style instructions for knitting this garment in any yarn, at any gauge.
