A cropped, short-sleeved t-shirt that goes with everything. Fitted without being tight, with a simple ribbed crew neck, short sleeves, and a short ribbed hem that keeps the shape right where you want it. The Billie Tee is a fast, satisfying knit perfect for summer, and exactly the kind of project you’ll want to cast on in every colour.

This pattern is made with the Dreamknit Design Tool. Knit it exactly as shown or feel free to change the yarn, the design or details to make it your own.

The t-shirt is worked seamlessly from the top down with raglan increases. You begin by casting on stitches for the yoke and working back and forth with increases to shape the neckline opening. The shoulders are joined by the front neck, and the yoke is knitted in the round with raglan increases. The sleeve stitches are placed on hold, and the body is worked in the round. The neckline ribbing is worked by picking up stitches along the neckline opening. Finally, the sleeves are worked from the held stitches.
