The Linar tee is knitted seamlessly from the top down. The back is worked first, followed by the shoulders. Once the back and front are joined, they are knitted together in the round and finished with a double-folded hem. The sleeves are shaped with short rows, then worked in the round and finally, the stitches are picked up along the neckline to create the neckband.
