Notes

Fast, cute and stylish - a perfect summer tee!

Notes:

  • 100 st. for back and 104 for front after sleeve split.
  • did larger version of textured stitch band, as I like it! 9 rows vs. 5.
  • started the textured stitch band a bit higher - row 12 (could have started earlier) as I want it above and below the widest part of my bust (aka nipple line).
  • first decrease at 3.5 inches, then 3 more decreases 14 or so rows apart.
  • did an extra garter ridge at the bottom.
  • 3 grams left out of 5th skein.
  • sleeves had 64 plus 4 picked up =70. KAL 9/9 through 12/12

I want to make this smaller at the top so I don’t have to wear a tank under it, so start out with size S and increase to M1 at sleeve split.

I swatched and got gauge after washing - 22 st. on 3.5 mm needles. However, from prior experience, I know my swatch lies, and I will end up with a wider garment.

Pattern Gauge: 22 stitches and 32 rows = 4 inches in Stockinette stitch
