DESCRIPTION
Geo is the ultimate tee for all seasons, designed with structure and flexibility in mind. A geometric textural motif in the yoke and striking, mesh-like ribbed side panels combine the chic elegance of knitwear and shape-hugging ease of activewear, perfect for dressing up or down, on its own or as a comfortable under-layer.

GEO provides options for a range of ease and to customize not only body and sleeve lengths but also upper and lower waist shaping for different body shapes, to be size- and shape- inclusive.

CONSTRUCTION
Geo is worked seamlessly from the top down, starting with cast-on for back neck, top of sleeve caps, and front neck edges. Upper yoke is worked flat with compound raglan increases (at different rates for neck, sleeves, and body) to maximize fit, while incorporating textured stitch pattern in the sleeves and front, to front neck. Center front stitches are then cast on to join front neck edges, continuing with the raglans until armhole depth is reached. Body and sleeve stitches are then separated with sleeve sts put on hold, and underarm stitches cast on to join front and back to complete the body in the round. Waist shaping is worked if preferred, with decreases to just above natural waist and/or increases toward the upper hip. Sleeve sts and neckband sts are picked up and completed in the round, with options for sleeve style and length of your choice.
