Lazy Weekend Tee

The lazy weekend tee is an oversized, striped tee knit in stockinette from the bottom up. The garment is begun in the round and then split and knit in front and back panels. The german twisted cast on and icelandic bind off give this tee a slightly rolled hem along the ribbing. This tee’s comfortable, slouchy fit makes it the perfect tee to lounge around the house, or take out to the farmer’s market or brunch! **PROJECT LEVEL** Easy/Beginner **SIZING** This tee is designed to have 4 in/10 cm to 8 in/20.5 cm of positive ease. It is recommended that if you have a curvier figure (waist measurement is 75% or less than hip measurement) or fuller bust to choose a size that is closer to 8 in/20.5 cm of positive ease. If you have a smaller bust or utilize more straight sizing when choosing garments, it is recommended to choose a size closer to 4 in/10 cm of positive ease. To decide on your size, take your bust measurement and add your desired ease. Example: Bust measurement is 46 in/117 cm on a curvier figure with a fuller bust. Choosing a positive ease of 8 in/20.5 cm, add 8 in/20.5 cm to 46 in/117 cm, making 54 in/137.5 cm the desired bust for the final garment. To achieve this, knit size 5.
