Poppy Tee with Double strands of Sesia Oliver Kit

The Poppy Tee features a beautifully structured yoke worked from the top down. The upper back yoke is worked with increases, then shoulders are shaped from stitches picked up along the slanted edges. The body is worked in the round, and sleeves are worked using either double-pointed needles or the Magic Loop technique. The folded neckline with built-in double knitting creates a clean, polished edge.
