Light, airy, and whimsical, the Cloud Gazer Tee is an ode to fluffy clouds, daydreaming, and cloud gazing. Worked from the top down with raglan shaping, a relaxed fit, and lightweight fabric, this tee is perfect for warm weather. The Cloud Gazer Tee presents a canvas for playing with color and an opportunity for stash-busting as you work the gentle bubble stitch texture. Knit in DK weight yarn, this tee is a refreshing, quick, and simple knit.
