The Brightest Tee is a fun knitted tee designed to show off beautiful yarn. A classic shape, seamless construction and neat details provide the perfect canvas for those special skeins. It is worked seamlessly from the top down. Stitches are cast on across the back shoulders, which are shaped into a boat neckline using short rows. The front and back is then worked separately, before joining to work the body in the round, optional bust darts can be added. Finally, short or cap sleeves, are made by picking up around the armhole and shaped using German Short-rows..
