UltraViolet Tee

Sizing:

Sizing follows the Craft Yarn Council’s standards for Women’s sizes.

This tee has a loose, oversized fit, with about 6” to 8” (about 15-20 cm) of positive ease. If you are between sizes, size up if you want a looser-fit tee, or size down if you want a more fitted tee. Measure the bust of the wearer, and choose the size that is closest to the wearer’s bust measurement, under the title “To Fit Bust”.

Pattern includes instructions for two lengths, a slightly cropped version and a full length version. Please compare the finished length of the tee given in the instructions to the wearer’s body to see which version of the tee you would like to make. Cropped version is shown in pattern photos on a petite model.

Length of Tee is adjustable. If you want to add length, you will need more yarn than the pattern requires.

Instructions and yarn requirements for size X-Small are given outside the parentheses, with Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, 2X, 3X, 4X, and 5X given inside the parentheses, like this:

X-Small (Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X).

When only one number is given, it applies to all sizes. To follow pattern more easily, circle or highlight all numbers that apply to your size before beginning.
