Kimberlite is an asymmetrical tee with a repeated theme of diamonds: the off-center textured panel is one large diamond made up of many smaller twist-stitch diamonds; the back features a diamond-shaped keyhole; and the V-neck front is half a diamond. So many diamonds!

Construction: This tee is worked from the bottom up in the round to the underarms. Then the Front and Back are worked separately back and forth in rows, with a V-neck in front and a diamond-shaped keyhole in the back. Short rows shape the shoulders, which are joined with a three-needle bind-off. Twisted rib at all the edges finishes everything neatly. The twist-stitch panel is charted only.
