Very Light Super Basic Tee
DESCRIPTION
The Very Light Super Basic Tee is an oversized and relaxed fitted t-shirt designed for lace weight yarn.
It is worked from the top down in stockinette stitch. First the back is worked with increases until the needed width is reached, then you work flat until you reach the armholes. Next the fronts are worked separately by picking up stitches along the shoulders, increases are forming the neckline until the two parts can be joined.
As soon as the armholes are reached, the front and the back can be joined to work in rounds until the body has the desired length. Then the neckline is worked by picking up stitches from the wrong side to work stockinette stitch in rounds and to be folded and sewn down on the right side.
The sleeves are worked by picking up stitches along the armholes and knitted in rounds with some decreases.
