The Easy Knit Tee is a seamless, top-down knitting pattern designed for a clean and modern look. The garment is worked entirely in stockinette stitch, with no ribbing at the neckline, sleeves or hem, creating a minimal and refined finish.

German Short Rows are used at the beginning to shape the neckline for a better fit. The raglan construction is intentionally simplified, with increases worked only at the front and back sections to create a subtle and smooth raglan line.

The tee is designed to be worn with little to no ease for a close fitting silhouette.

Construction

• worked top down
• seamless
• worked in the round
• raglan construction
• German Short Rows for neckline shaping
• no ribbing (rolled edges at neckline, sleeves and hem)

Fit
Designed for a close fit (0 to -5 cm / 0 to -2” ease).
For a more relaxed fit, consider choosing a larger size.

Skills required

• knitting in the round
• knit and purl stitches
• German Short Rows (double stitch method)
• making increases (M1 from the strand between stitches)
• working with stitch markers
• picking up stitches (optional neckline adjustment)
• basic finishing (weaving in ends)

Notes
Gauge is measured in stockinette stitch, worked in the round, after blocking. The yarn will soften and relax after washing, giving the garment a more fluid drape.
