Every wardrobe needs a polo and this one is flippin’ sweet. Bring back the ’00s classic with Deb!

Deb has a classic polo cut hitting right at the hip with a loose fitting elbow length sleeve. It is intended to be knit with a striped pattern to play with different color palettes, but also looks great as a single color polo, or with just contrast edging.

Polo is worked top down and is knit entirely in one piece. The top front and back are knit flat, then joined to work the body in the round. Sleeves and collar are picked up and worked in the round, the collar is additionally worked flat to create the polo look.
