The Cloudspotter Tee by Lindsey Newns, the crocheter designer behind Lottie & Albert, has dreamt up a boxy striped tee that epitomizes laidback summer style. It features simple stripes, cuffed sleeves and is worked in moss stitch. The basic panel construction and shaping-free design make it ideal for beginners.

The T-shirt is crocheted in rows, bottom up, in two panels which are then joined at the shoulder and side, creating a drop shoulder. A cuff is added to the sleeve after joining.
