Banister Tee & Longsleeve

ABOUT BANISTER is an elegant summer design that offers options for both long and short sleeves, allowing you to create either a relaxed tee or a lightweight sweater – perfect for cooler summer evenings and mornings. The inspiration for this design goes all the way back to my childhood. Every detail is inspired by the staircase of the mid-century apartment building I grew up in. The textured hem and cuffs reflect the structure of the banister, while the zigzag raglan lines echo the shape of the stairs. **Fit** Banister has a relaxed, shaped fit on the body with fitted sleeves and a gently scooped neck. The soft and drapey summer yarn makes the shirt easy to wear, even directly on the skin. **Techniques** Latvian braids, raglan increases and Japanese short rows. **Skill level** Intermediate **Sizes** *Finished Measurements* Size 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 Chest 97 | 105 | 113 | 122 | 130 | 138 | 147 cm 38 | 41 | 44.5 | 48 | 51 | 54| 58 ″ Waist 92 | 100 | 108 | 117 | 125 | 133 | 142 cm 36.2 | 39.4 | 42.5 |46 | 49.2 | 52.4 | 56 ″ Length 59 | 61 | 63 | 65,5 | 67 | 69 | 71 cm 23.2 | 24 | 24.8 | 25.8 | 26.4 | 27.2 | 28 ″ Sleeves (long) 40 | 41 | 42 | 43 | 44 | 45 | 46 cm 15.7 | 16 | 16.5 | 17 | 17.3 | 17.7 | 18 ″ (short) 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 cm 3.5 | 4 | 4.3 | 4.7 | 5 | 5.5 | 5.9 ″ Yoke depth 19,5 | 20,5 | 21,5 | 23 | 24,5 | 25,5 | 27 cm 7.7 | 8 | 8.5 | 9 | 9.5 | 10 | 10,5 ″ **Yarn** Isager Merilin (80% wool - 20% linen, 50g - 208m) LONGSLEEVE 300 | 300 | 350 | 400 | 450 | 500 | 500 g TEE 250 | 250 | 300 | 350 | 350 | 400 | 400 g
