Summer Sorbet Tee
The Summer Sorbet Tee is a top-down raglan tee with minimal edging and an elegant and simple raglan detail.
Sizes:
This tee is designed to be worn with approximately 6cm/2.5in of positive ease at the bust and 5cm/2in of positive ease at the upper arm.
I suggest 2 options: cropped with shorter sleeves and raw edges or full length with longer short sleeves and I-cord finishings. You may wish to pick different elements of both options to make your version, just be mindful that the yarn requirements might differ from the suggestions below.
The sizes are designed to fit 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 = 71-76 (81-86, 91.5-96.5, 101.5-106.5, 111.5-117) 122-127, 132-137, 142-147, 152-158, 163-168cm / 28-30 (32-34, 36-38, 40-42, 44-46) 48-50, 52-54, 56-58, 60-62, 64-66in
