Let it roll – that’s the idea behind Heiwa! This is something men will want to wear – it’s a fitted and comfortable t-shirt designed with versatility in mind.

The bold-colored zipper and tabs give this shirt quick bursts of color, and allow the sleeves to be worn up or down, and the collar to be worn open or closed.

It’s worked in stockinette stitch mostly in the round- only the easy-wearing split hem is worked back-and-forth – so Heiwa is easy and quick. And, minimal blocking is required – so let those edges roll!
