Knitting Kit - Sylvan Tee by Aneta Bleyer

Sylvan Tee features a beautiful and original cable line that twists and turns around the back, neckline, and sleeves. This top can be worn casually or elegantly thanks to its refined and distinctive look. Meticulous details and impeccable finishes give it a modern style with a touch of elegance.

Its name, "Sylvan", meaning "of the forest", is inspired by the movement of the cables that run through the pattern, resembling intertwining tree branches and roots.

The Sylvan Tee is knitted top-down and entirely seamless. Its modified dropped-shoulder construction and European shoulder seam, positioned slightly behind the natural shoulder line, ensure an optimal fit. The pattern is knitted both flat and in the round.

Video tutorials included for the techniques used.
