If I had a dollar for every time I described one of my summer knits as easy breezy I could retire! But, how else can I describe how it feels to wear a drapey silk/linen tee with a pretty peekaboo cable side detail? It’s literally the definition of easy breezy and I stand by it. The Quayside tee is exactly what I want to be wearing during the summer months and I think you’ll like it too!

Tee is knit flat from the bottom up and then seamed. This adds structure and integrity to the garment. Body length and sleeve depth are completely adjustable to your preference.
