This intermediate Tee pattern is worked from the bottom up, in the round to the underarms, and then flat to the shoulder join. The shoulders are joined with a 3 needle bind off or Kitchener stitch (both included in pattern), and the best part is after the join you are done! Due to the construction method, there are no stitches to pick up for sleeves or neck!

Short rows create an optional slight high-low hem, and a fun lace panel runs up the side and forms a cap sleeve, creating a slouchy shape without any waist shaping.

Stockinette Gauge: 28 st x 36 rows
Lace Gauge: 22 st x 34 rows

The bust sizes are based on both stockinette gauge and lace gauge, but it is more important to meet stockinette gauge, if you cannot get both with the same needle. Note that if your lace gauge is different, it will impact sleeve length and bust size. Hem size listed below is only based on stockinette gauge, so if your gauges are different, you could consider choosing based on the hem circumference.
