Nautical Tee No 2

The sleeves are then taken up again to be modelled, their length is short. **SIZES** XS (S) M (L) XL (XXL) **MEASUREMENTS** *Bust Circumference:* 110 (117) 122 (129) 135 (140) cm - [43 (46) 48 (50) 53 (55) inches] *Length:* 50 (52) 52 (54) 54 (56) cm [19.68 (20.47) 20.47 (21.25) 21.25 (22) inches] from the center of the back. **NEEDLES** 4 ½ mm [US 7] circulars needles - 80 cm [32 inches] 4 mm [US 6] circulars needles - 40 cm [16 inches] **GAUGE** In a stripes pattern using 4 ½ mm [US 7] needles for 16 sts / 24 rows = 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 inches] after washing and blocking. **YARN USED** The Cotton WeAreKnitters - 100% pima cotton - 100g / 212m in colours natural for MC and terracotta for CC. **YARN QUANTITY** *MC:* 300 (300/350) 400 (450/500) 500 (550/600) gr *CC:* 50 (50) 50 (50) 50 (50) gr **TECHNIQUES** Cast On in round, raglan technique, stockinette technique, jacquard technique in round, increase technique, german short rows and lace technique.
