SHORT SUMMARY

This tee is worked from the top down with raglan in turned rounds. The yoke and body are worked back and forth, from mid back (i.e. alternately from the right and wrong side) and crocheted together at the end of each row, top down. The sleeves are worked back and forth and crocheted together at the end of each row, top down
At the beginning of each round of hdc_blo work 2 chain stitches; these chain stitches replace the first hdc_blo, i.e. skip the first hdc_blo from the previous round. The round ends with 1 slip stitch in the 2nd chain stitch at the beginning of the round.
To crochet a shark design use intarsia crochet technique, which involves adding new yarn for each color change.
