Maj Tee
Maj Tee is a short-sleeved yoke sweater worked top down in the round. The colourwork yoke, featuring tulips and butterflies, is worked according to a chart and shaped with evenly distributed increases for a smooth and balanced fit. Short rows are worked at the back neck for improved comfort and fit.
Once the yoke is complete, the work is divided for body and sleeves. The body is worked in stockinette stitch in the round and finished with a ribbed hem. The sleeves are worked in the round from held stitches and finished with short ribbed cuffs.
