Sand Harbor is a chic and modern take on traditional nautical styles. Knit in a linen-wool blend, this drapey, breathable top features wide stripes and subtle cables that mimic ripples on the water.

The pattern now includes an addendum with instructions for knitting in the round.

Notes
This tee is worked flat in two pieces from the bottom up and seamed. Neck and armhole bands are picked up and knit in the round after seaming.
