Sinuous Tee is an oversized tee with a crewneck and short sleeves. It’s designed with a “wavy” looking textured pattern along the body and sleeves using simple slip stitch pattern and colorwork.
For this tee choose summer yarn like cotton or linen for warm days or use wool consist yarn for some colder days in mid-season period.
Sinuous Tee is a perfect tee to wear over dresses or with shorts and jeans to brighten your summer or mid-season wardrobe.

Sinuous tee is worked top down seamlessly in the round with textured pattern along the body and sleeves. At the beginning of the yoke a few short rows are worked to shape back longer for better fit. Yoke continues working in the round with raglan increases. Once the yoke is ready, sleeves stitches are placed on hold and the body continues to work in the round to the hem. Sleeves are worked in the round once the body is ready.
The last touch – finish neckline with I-cord bind off for a more polished look. This pattern doesn’t include any charts, it’s all written row-by row.
