Le Knit - Julienne Tee - Paper
Julienne Tee is knitted from the top down. It has short sleeves that are knitted at the same time as the body. The top is knitted in one piece, which is shaped as you go, so there is no need to sew anything together.

Construction
First, the upper part of the back piece is knitted from the slanted shoulders and a short distance down the back piece. Then, stitches are knitted up for the front piece along the shoulder stitches of the back piece. Each side of the upper part of the front piece is knitted separately. The slanted shoulders of the front piece are first formed with a circular needle. Then, stitches are knitted up for the top of the sleeve and the front piece, back piece and sleeves are knitted together to the end of the armhole. From here, the body and sleeves are finished separately. Finally, stitches are knitted up for the neckline along the neckline.
Size selection
The Julienne Tee is intended to have a range of movement of 7-12 cm depending on how loose you want it. Here it is shown with a range of movement of 8 cm. Find your chest width by measuring around your chest (or the largest measurement of your upper body). Then look at the measurements that are listed first in the pattern (these are the finished measurements of the sweater). Range of movement (positive ease) is the difference between the measurements you have taken of yourself and the measurements of the blouse. For example, if your chest width is 94 cm, a size M will give you a range of movement of 10 cm (104 cm - 94 cm = 10 cm).
*Length is measured center back, excluding neckline.
