Made for shifting weather and changing seasons, Downstream Tee is a relaxed garment suitable for your next adventure. The tee is knit from the bottom up in reverse stockinette with a single twisted stitch up the front and the back. The sleeves are worked in a simple mesh lace pattern and joined to the body with compound raglan shaping, forming a striking detail sloping towards the neckline. Simple twisted rib cuffs add a refined finish.
