INTRODUCTION
Mimi is a fitted, contiguous set-in sleeve tee that is knit top-down. Stitches were increased at the shoulders & at about mid-point of the sleeve length to create puffy shoulders & bell-shaped sleeves. The body is waist-shaped, embellished with duplicate stitching, & finished with picot hems. It is worn with no ease for all sizes for a slimming fit.

Mimi is named after a character in the show “Project Blue Book”, available on the Roku Channel.

Project Level: Complex (the duplicate stitching may require some time & patience).

Sample garment shown is in size 32”/81 cm bust.
