Ringer Tee is a classic tee shirt pattern with contrasting ribbing at the collar and cuffs. It is inspired by the tee shirts of my childhood--soft, easy to wear, with the comfortable reassurance of an old friend.
It is designed to have 2 inches of positive ease. Wear it with jeans or dress it up with a skirt or trousers. Let it take you back to a time when you waited for the ice cream truck to come around on a hot day and spent the summer playing outside until the streetlights came on.
