Lobelia

Lobelia is a fully reversible, top-down T-shirt worked seamlessly in the rnd. Short rows are used to raise the back neck, while regular increases shape the yoke before separating the body and sleeves. Additional stitches are then cast on at the underarms to join the front and back panels, then, the body is knit in the round seamlessly, preserving the garment’s fully reversible construction. Once the yoke is complete, the sleeve stitches are placed on hold while the body is worked to the desired length. The sleeves are then returned to the needles and worked in the rnd. All edges — neckline, sleeves, and hem — are finished with a simple purl bind-off, maintaining the clean and understated lines of the design.
