The Stellar Tee
The Stellar Tee is inspired by the orbits around stellar black holes and galaxies. I wanted to design a piece that captures the expanding, geometric structure of these orbits, while remaining simple and yet stand out as a daily wardrobe staple.
From a knitting structure perspective, the Stellar Tee features aligned shoulder shaping worked without short rows and the sizing is uniquely based on shoulder width for a tailored fit.
