not so crazy stripes tee
not so crazy stripes tee is a seamless pullover worked from the top down in 1 piece, a little less crazy than her sister crazy stripes tee. The stripes going from small to large stripes are shaped by working short rows.
Starting with shaping the back and shoulders, stitches are picked up for the front and sleeves and are worked following the contiguous sleeve method, developed by Susie Myers.
In fact, if you leave out the short row striping, this is a pattern for a very basic, seamless, top down tee or pullover.
Can be worn with no ease, a little negative or positive ease. Due to the nature of the contiguous sleeve inset, it’s best to start with the numbers of the size closest to your high bust measurement and add more increases for the body and sleeves, if you should want more ease.
Available sizes: XS-S-M-L-XL-XXL: finished measurements: 28, 31.5, 35.5, 38.5, 44, 48.5” (71, 80, 90, 98, 111, 123 cm)
