The Peggy Tee is a puff sleeve top with fun and modern contrast sleeves. With a form-fitting, semi-cropped bodice, this top looks really good with high waist trousers or skirts. With half length sleeves, this makes the ideal transition piece from Spring to Summer!

The bodice is worked in the round for the most part, and is only seamed at the shoulders. The sleeves are also worked in the round and directly onto the body. It’s a quick and simple make, designed to be made in an acrylic/acrylic blend yarn for a bit of structure in the sleeves.

This pattern was designed to use a contrast colour for the sleeves, but feel free to keep it to one colour, it’ll still look amazing. Although it is semi-cropped, you can alter the length to suit you: just add more rows before the upper body shaping. (Note: adding or removing length will affect the amount of yarn required)

Bust sizes given as XS (S, M, L, XL, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X): 76 (86, 97, 107, 117, 127, 137, 147, 158) cm, requiring: 466 (525, 602, 663, 745, 811, 891, 966, 1027) metres of DK yarn for Yarn A and 306 (346, 358, 442, 454, 495, 613, 655, 765) metres of DK yarn for Yarn B. (If using one colour, make sure to add Yarn A and Yarn B amounts together)

This pattern is available in both UK & US terminology so you don’t have to translate stitches!
