The Adult Sarah Tee is a short sleeve sweater you’ll want to knit again and again. Designed as the big sister to the Child Sarah Tee, this bottom-up tee is knit in the round until the sleeves, then worked flat, with only minimal seaming at the shoulders and underarms.

I knit my sample using Premier Yarns Bamboo Fair in the color Twilight (affiliate link) on size 6 (4mm) circular needles for the body and size 4 (3.5mm) circular needles for the ribbing. The fabric is soft, lightweight, and perfect for layering or wearing on its own.

The Adult Sarah Tee can be made fitted for a classic silhouette, or oversized and tucked in for a more modern look. Whether you’re new to sweater knitting or an experienced knitter, this tee will be a satisfying, wearable project.

Pair it with jeans, skirts, or shorts—it’s one of those free knit sweater patterns you’ll come back to again and again.
