The Le Havre Tee is a top-down knitted T-shirt, made with a circular yoke. The tee is designed to be comfortable to wear and show off your prettiest yarn, whether it is hand-dyed or just a beautiful color. Both the body and sleeve length are easily adjustable, making it a very versatile pattern. The neck edging is made with a folded hem for a classic look.
