Rise Tee

**RISE TEE** ”THE TIDE IS HIGH“ RISE is an easy-to-wear t-shirt featuring a dropped saddle shoulder, a scooped neckline and a slightly tapered body with a relaxed fit. The two-coloured design is defined by a wavy waterline around the chest, worked in short rows, which divides the tee into an upper and a lower section. Choosing a lighter and a darker shade from the same colour family for these two sections creates the impression that the lower half of the garment has been dipped into water. **Skill level** Intermediate **Languages** German | English | Danish **Sizes** 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 Chest circumference 98 | 106 | 115 | 123 | 131 | 139 | 147 cm 38.5 | 41.5 | 45 | 48.5 | 51.5 | 55 | 58 " **Yarn** Fior di Lino by mYak Colour 1 100 | 100 | 150 | 150 | 150 | 150 | 150 g 400 | 425 | 450 | 480 | 515 | 550 | 580 m 437 | 465 | 495 | 525 | 565 | 600 | 635 yds Colour 2 150 | 150 | 150 | 150 | 150 | 200 | 200 g 440 | 460 | 470 | 570 | 585 | 600 | 610 m 482 | 505 | 515 | 625 | 640 |655 | 670 yds **Needles/hooks** 2,5 mm / US 1.5 and 3,25 mm / US 3 circular needles in 40 cm length for the neckband and sleeves. 2,5 mm / US 1.5 and 3,25 mm / US 3 circular needles in 80/100 cm length for yoke and body.
