Utility has the ease and wearability of a favourite tee. The linen yarn will keep you cool in summer heat and gets softer with wear. It is knitted in the round from the bottom up starting with an i-cord cast on. It has a deep hem of slipped-stitch tea-towel stripes and you can embroider the back with your own monogram. The arms and neck are finished with attached i-cord.
