Designer: Melissa Dehncke McGill

The patterns in Dehncke McGill’s drop-shoulder tee evoke the interplay of light and shadow over sand dunes. Knitted in a textured slip-stitch pattern, AKARI SOLO in pale green #1 Moegi seems to shift in tone as it’s striped against a multicolored background of AKARI #17 Yachimata.
