Rosencrantz by Norichan Knits. Rosencrantz is a sleeveless tee/tank and is a quick and simple knit done in two pieces and seamed along the sides and shoulders. This allows the knitter to adjust the underarm height and neckline to their preferred measurements. :o) The ombre effect is achieved by holding different colors together!
