Vertical lines of knit stitches give the simply constructed Larimar Tee a sophisticated look. The identical front and back are worked separately, then seamed together. You’ll get some practice picking up stitches around the armholes: A thin trim of ribbing is added at the end.

  • The front and back of this pullover are worked separately back and forth from the bottom up. After the shoulders and sides are seamed, stitches for the armhole trim are picked up around the armhole and worked in the round from the top down.
