Birk Tee is a classic raglan tee with a relaxed fit. The sweater is worked seamlessly from top down. After the neckribbing, short rows are worked to create a comfortable fit. The yoke is worked in the round on circular needles from the neckline down to the underarm. The work is then divided, and the front and back pieces are worked. The sleeves are worked last. The textured pattern is described both in the written instructions and shown in the chart.
