Knitting kit - Ida Tee by Petiteknit

Pattern not included - you must purchase the pattern on Ravelry here. 

Pattern available in French and English.

The Ida Tee is knitted top-down with a textured pattern and contrasting colour stripes. The first part of the yoke is worked flat, back and forth, while the neckline is shaped. Then, the work is joined in the round to continue the yoke in the round on circular needles with raglan increases.

Finally, stitches are picked up along the neckline and a ribbed border is knitted.

Size Guide

The Ida Tee is designed with approximately 6 cm (2¼ inches) of positive ease, meaning the finished garment is approximately 6 cm larger than your bust circumference.

75–80 (80–85) 85–90 (90–95) 95–100 (100–110) 110–120 (120–130) 130–140 (140–150) cm

Finished garment measurements can be found on the first page of the pattern.
Measure yourself before you start to determine the most suitable size.
