This striking yet comfortable tee is deceptively easy and knits up quickly. Southwick’s great stitch definition shows off the mosaic bodice, and the yarn’s blend of cotton and bamboo produces flattering drape. Whether worn with jeans for a day around town or with a skirt or dress pants for a special evening, you know you will look great. Arcturus is knit in the round from the bottom up to the armholes, then divided for the front and the back. Additional stitches are cast on to create the cap sleeves. The mosaic pattern is in chart form only.
