Kelda is a light and airy top with an interesting lower openwork border, designed to be worn with positive ease. The original has a slightly cropped length, but you can make it any length you want.

Cascades Tee

This gorgeous hand knit tee from Knit Picks can easily be knit on the machine.

The original pattern features a lovely lace pattern that is charted so you could re-produce it in DesignaKnit (or manually). But you could substitute any lace pattern of your choice

It has simple eyelet borders at the bottom hems and around the sleeves. Dust off your garter bar to reproduce their hem or substitute a ribbing, rolled hem, picot hem or your favorite edge technique (scallops, anyone?)
