About this pattern
Branches tee is knit from the top down in all over texture using charts. First you knit the back piece flat, while at the same time increasing for the neckline. The yoke is then joined in the round knit with raglan increases before separating for sleeves. The body is finished with a short 1x1 rib. Then the sleeves are knit in the round. Finally, stitches for the collar are picked up and knit in a 1x1 folded rib.
