The Cannon Beach Tee is worked seamlessly from the top down. It is made using classic drop shoulder construction and features a double I-cord detail along the back neckline, a gentle scoop neck, just long enough sleeves with two possible silhouettes, and a curved hemline. Bust shaping is written into the pattern to enable a custom fit of the garment.

This pattern has been tech edited by Rebecca Williamson, and graded to fit all bodies in the same manner.
