The inspiration for Citrus Slice Tee was a slice of citrus fruit! The natural structure of the fruit works perfectly with the circular yoke construction of this sweater. It is worked from the top down, and it ends at the natural waist for a cropped style. The citrus-like colorwork is created using duplicate stitch.
