INTRODUCTION

The Funfetti Cupcake Tee is named for the gorgeous variegated colorway that is used for the “sprinkles” effect of the lace panels on the front and back. I loved the interplay of pink, gold, and teal of a pretty skein of Emma’s Yarn and based the design idea from taking that special skein and turning it into a special tee.

Knit from one variegated colorway and one solid, this tee can be worn on its own or paired with a blouse for a topper as we move through the seasons. This tee is size inclusive and totally customizable in width and length! Dive your stash to turn that perfect indie dyed skein into a stunning top!

I have prepared an overview video to introduce you to the pattern and to help you consider yarn, fit, and sizing. This top has pre-baked sizes ranging from 29.5” (74 cm) to 70” (175 cm). Additionally, I’ve included a recipe to calculate the top to any custom size you want!
