PATTERN INFORMATION
This short sleeve tee is worked in the round from the top down in stockinette stitch. It features a twisted rib hem at the bottom of the sweater, the collar, and sleeve. There is a twisted cable pattern (10 st/8 rnds) running down the length of the sides from the armhole join to the top of the hem.

The majority of the sweater is knitted in Alpaca Silk (A) with contrasting 2.5 cm / 1” stripes knit in Friends Kid Silk (B) from the chest to the top of the hem. The raglan style yoke is created with eyelet increases. After the yoke and sleeve shaping is complete, the sleeve stitches are placed on stitch wire. Extra stitches are cast on at the underarms and the front and back stitches are joined and worked in the round with gentle A-line shaping increases to the hem. After the body is complete, stitches at the sleeves are picked up and knit in the twisted rib pattern.
