Just Bee Tee
Summary
Just Bee Tee is a raglan blouse with short sleeves, knitted from the top down on circular needles. Short rows are worked just after the ribbing to create a good fit around the neck and shoulders. The yoke is shaped with raglan increases and adorned with decorative cables, while a Honeycomb Brioche pattern is worked on the shoulder stitches. Once the sleeve stitches are placed on hold, the body is completed on circular needles and closed with a half-twisted rib. The sleeves are then knitted, and finished with a half-twisted rib cuff. The neckline can be folded down and stitched in place according to preference. Each step is described row by row, there is a diagram for the Honeycomb Brioche and video tutorials are available for guidance.

Size Guide
Just Bee Tee should have a positive ease of approx. 5-10 cm / 2-4 inches compared to your bust measurement. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL / US: 2 (4-6) 8-10 (12-14) 16 (18-20) 22-24 correspond to bust measurements of:
80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm.
31½-33½ (33½-35½) 35½-37½ (37½-39½) 39½-43½ (43½-47¼) 47¼-51¼ inches.
For example, if your bust (or the widest part of your body) measures 93 cm / 36 ½”, you should knit a size M / (US: 8-10). A size M tee has a bust circumference of 100 cm / 39½” and will then give a positive ease around the bust of 7 cm / 2 ¾” in this example.
