Brighton Tee is a classic raglan striped t-shirt. The t-shirt is worked from the top down. First the neck edge is worked and folded over, then short rows create shape to the neck as part of the yoke. The t-shirt is then divided for body and sleeves and new stitches are cast on for the underarms. Body and sleeves are finished separately and worked in the round, and the edges are bound off using your preferred bind-off technique.
