A spring-thru-autumn tee, knit with two colors alternating every row, creating a very subtle pin-striped affect that is super fun! Construction is bottom up, in-the-round, raglan decreases through shoulder. Decreases extend into rib neckline for a ‘square neck’ with i-cord bind-off finish. Great quick knit for kids, teens & t’weens. Feminine, flattering & modest.
Great sock yarn stash-buster if you mix it up with many colors !

Fit: As this garment is intended to be knit with a sheer quality to it, a fine weight yarn with larger needles is going to give you the lightweight fabric with lots of stretch, especially knit with sock yarn. The down-side of this stretchy fabric is it can be baggy, so choose size smaller if in doubt, at least 2” less than actual bust measurement.
Also the sweater tee is so beautiful knit with sport or dk weight because its a little firmer, crisper, and less sheer and stretchy -- aim for the same gauge worked with smaller needles, in sport or dk weight yarn.

Gauge: 6 stitches and 8 rows = 1 inch in stockinette.

It is essential to make a proper gauge swatch. If you knit at all loosely, you will need to go down a needle size. Be sure to make a proper circular-knit (in-the-round) & wet-blocked gauge swatch so that you can have an accurate fit, and change needle sizes and garment size if necessary. Please see my tutorial on 3-in-1 Swatch to get a thorough & more exact stitch-gauge swatch.

Sizes of actual garment: 28(30,32,34)36(38,40,42)
