Summer Fjord

„Summer Fjord“ is a light T-shirt, worked seamless from the top. Back and front pieces of the yoke are worked flat, with some short-row shaping for a nice fit around the shoulders, and then joined for the body to be knit in the round. Garter and slip stitch stripes and the charcteristic, slighty uneven look of linen add an offbeat touch to the design.
