Porto Venere is inspired by the architecture of the church in the eponymous Italian city Porto Venere. The structure, the stripes and the marine theme all marry happily together. It is a beginner friendly loose fitting tee featuring a flattering bateau neck. It is worked from the top down. No short rows are used in the pattern. This pattern comes with a seamed and a seamless version.

Porto Venere is graded with inclusive sizing in mind, designed to fit actual bust sizes from 76 cm / 30 inches to 168 cm / 66 inches. Measurements are given in both cm and inches.
