Description

The Pacific Crest Trail Tee by Kay Hopkins is a timeless v-neck pullover with a modern cable detail that adds texture and interest to a simple, wearable design. Inspired by effortless outdoor style, it’s perfect for warmer days and easily adaptable for cooler weather with three or more sleeve-length options. Knit seamlessly from the top down with high raglan sleeves that mimic the look of set-in shaping, it offers a flattering, customizable fit with an angled hemline and integrated i-cord edging along the neckline—no finishing required. With its easy-to-memorize cables and refined silhouette, this tee is a stylish staple you’ll reach for again and again.

Worked in a single strand of The Fibre Co. Road to China Light, this tee takes on a beautifully soft drape and gentle sheen that elevates its everyday appeal. The luxurious blend of baby alpaca, silk, camel, and cashmere creates a lightweight fabric that feels indulgent against the skin, while offering excellent stitch definition to highlight the cable motif. The yarn’s sportweight gauge makes it ideal for transitional garments, adding just the right amount of warmth and breathability for multi-season wear.
