Vendela Tee is a simple short-sleeved top, easy to wear and perfect for layering. The tee is worked seamlessly from the top down, in stockinette stitch, with trims in twisted ribbing. The project starts with working the neckband. The neckline is then shaped using short rows, while raglan increases are worked along the yoke. After the yoke is completed, the sleeve stitches are placed on hold, and the body is worked straight to the hem. The sleeves are then worked using Magic loop (or double pointed needles).

Size guideThe sizes 1 (2, 3, 4) 5 (6, 7, 8) are intended to fit a bust measurement (body circumference) of approx. 75–80 (80–85, 85–90, 90–95) 95–100 (100–110, 110–120, 120–130) cm. Vendela tee is intended to fit with approx. 10–15 cm of positive ease around the bust. Positive ease is the difference between your body measurement and the garment measurement – the finished circumference of the garment is meant to be approx. 10–15 cm larger than your bust measurement. Measure your bust circumference at its widest part, then look at the finished circumference of the garment and choose a size that is approx. 10–15 cm larger than your body measurement. For example – if your bust measurement is 90 cm, size 3 will give you 11 cm of ease, while size 4 will give you 16 cm of ease. It may be helpful to measure some of your favourite garments, to decide how much ease you prefer. Finished garment circumference: 90 (96, 101, 106) 111 (121, 130, 141) cm.
