Sorella is the sister garment to Fratello. She features some very special little touches including a lace panel that runs down the front and is repeated at the back hemline. Sweet little puff sleeves and baby cable rib make this top-down seamless t-shirt a fun and irresistible knit.

Construction:
This is a seamless garment constructed from the top down
with a raglan yoke construction. After knitting the yoke, the
garment is divided to knit the sleeves and body. The body is
finished with a back hemline detail.
