Gabriella Tee (adult)

The Gabriella Tee is a beautiful knit with lace details. The tee is worked top-down, in the round. First the left side of the yoke is worked back and forth, with raglan increases and increases to shape the neckline, followed by the right side of the yoke. The work is then joined in the front. The back neckline is shaped further and once completed, the work is joined at the back. From this point on, the rest of the yoke is knitted in the round. After finishing the yoke, the work is divided into sleeves and body. Stitches are cast on under the arms. The body is knitted in the round until the desired length has been reached. You can choose to work the stitches under the arms in a lace pattern or work the entire body in stockinette stitch. Stitches are bound off using the i-cord bind off. The sleeves are worked in the round, continuing the lace pattern, and bound off using the i-cord bind off. In a final step, stitches are picked up for the neckline to add an i-cord edge. **NOTE: Twinning is winning!** You can buy the adult & junior version of a design at a reduced price :) ('twinning bundle') The discount is automatically calculated at the check-out when buying both the adult & junior pattern. The Gabriella Tee is a tee with a positive ease of approx. 10-14 cm [4-4.5 inches] compared to the bust circumference. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a bust circumference (of the body) of approx. 74 (84) 94 (104) 114 (124) 134 (144) 155 cm [29.25 (33) 37 (41) 45 (48.75) 52.75 (56.76) 61 inches] respectively. Keep in mind that the final measurements of the tee already take these extra 10-14 cm [4-4.5 inches] into account. Take the necessary measurements to determine the right size before you start knitting.
