Shiro Tee

Overview Shiro Tee is a light and airy knit with clean lines, representing the Japanese word “Shiro (白)”. It’s a symbol of calm and simplicity. Instructions are written. The tee is worked top-down, contiguously, with saddle shoulder construction. You start with working German Short Rows to raise the back yoke, then work increases for sleeves and body. Body and sleeves are divided at underarm to be worked separately. Acknowledgement ※This pattern is for personal use only. You are more than welcome to knit for your family members or friends.
