Sommarøy T-shirt has a feminine look with its round, elegant yoke. The elongated-stitch technique is easy to knit and creates a beautiful texture on the upper part of the T-shirt. The T-shirt is knitted in the lovely Silk Linen, which has a beautiful surface and is perfect for warm days.

How to knit it
Sommarøy T-shirt is worked from the top down in a pattern with elongated stitches on the yoke. First the circular yoke is worked in pattern, then in stocking stitch with german short rows to make the back higher than the front. Lastly, raglan increases are worked before the body and sleeves are worked separately and finished with a garter stitch hem.
