Bori Tee (with long sleeve option!)

Adventurers, foragers, comfy sit-at-home-and-knitters -- all are welcome here. I designed the Bori Tee with a shallower split neckline that allows for the committing of tomfoolery on a warm summer’s day. Meaning “barley” in Korean, I hope that this garment allows you to freely roam wherever you’d please, swaying in the wind. There is also a long-sleeve option for a hard-wearing winter’s sweater version. Worked top-down, the Bori Tee starts in the back, where the shoulders are shaped with short rows for a comfier fit. Then, the front panels are worked, and the neckline shaped, also with gentle short-row shaping. The front and back are connected and worked, then the neckline is finished with a neat i-cord. Finally, the sleeves are picked up and worked top-down.
