Amélie Tee - Paper
This recipe is in Norwegian.
Amélie Tee is worked top down in stockinette stitch and stripes. First work back and forth on the needle to form the neckline, then gather the piece so that the rest of the yoke is worked in the round on circular needle with raglan increases. Along the neckline, pick up stitches and work a stockinette stitch edge.
Size guide
The Amélie Tee should have a positive ease of movement of approx. 7 cm in relation to your bust measurement. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a bust measurement, measured on your own body, of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm. The measurements of the finished tee are stated on the front of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start knitting to assess which size will fit you best. For example, if you measure 90 cm around your bust (or the widest part of your upper body), you should knit size S. A tee in size S has an upper width of 97 cm and in the aforementioned example will provide a range of movement (positive ease) of 7 cm.
