This pattern is the women’s version, without buttons on the collar and designed for women’s proportions regarding length of arms and torso. For the men’s version, search “Marcu Polo Man”.

Marcu Polo is a soft and classic polo t-shirt, knitted on small needles for a stylish and clean look. The polo is knitted top-down, so that the length of both the sleeves and the body can be easily altered for personal shape and preferences. Firstly the back piece is knitted and then the left and right front piece. The whole thing is joined in the round and knitted until it reaches the desired length. The button band is made using double knitting, and afterwards stitches for the collar are picked up and worked in double knitting and 1x1 rib. The sleeves are shaped and worked using german shorts, rib and double knitting.
