Matilda Tee

Matilda Tee is a light, soft, and effortlessly elegant knit with delicate picot edges and a relaxed silhouette. The airy mohair fabric creates a beautiful drape while keeping the garment lightweight and comfortable to wear. Matilda Tee is worked seamlessly from the top down. First the neckline is worked in the round with a folded picot edge. The yoke is then shaped with raglan increases, after which the work is divided into body and sleeves. The body and sleeves are worked separately in the round and both are finished with folded picot edges. The tee is worked holding 3 strands of lace-weight mohair together throughout, creating a soft and airy fabric with an elegant halo. Begin by working a swatch to determine which needle size gives you the correct gauge. Due to differences in tension, you may need a different needle size than suggested in the pattern. **Sizes** (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL **Measurements** Circumference: (106) 114 (122) 130 (138) 146 cm (41,75) 44,75 (48) 51,25 (54,25) 57,5 inches Length: (54) 56 (58) 60 (62) 64 cm (21,25) 22 (22,75) 23,5 (24,5) 25,25 inches **Yarn** DROPS Kid-Silk (75% mohair, 25% silk, 25 g = 210 m) (300) 325 (350) 375 (400) 425 g **Needles** Circular needles 4–4,5 mm (US6–7), 80/100 cm and 40 cm / 32–40 in and 16 in, or size needed to obtain gauge Circular needles (80 cm / 32 in) 6 mm (US10) **Gauge** 18 sts x 26 rows = 10 cm x 10 cm (4 x 4 inches) with three strands of yarn held together. **Size selection** Matilda Tee is designed to be worn with approximately 15–25 cm (6–10 inches) of positive ease.
