Amélie Tee Junior - Paper

Amélie Tee Junior 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

Amélie Tee Junior should have a positive ease of movement of approx. 9 cm in relation to the bust measurement. Sizes 1-2 (2-3) 3-4 (4-5) 5-6 (6-7) 7-8 (8-9) 9-10 (10-11) 11-12 (12-13) 13-14 years correspond to a bust measurement of approx. 53 (54) 56 (57) 59 (62) 64 (68) 72 (75) 78 (80) 82 cm. The measurements of the finished blouse are stated on the front of the pattern (note that these measurements only apply if the knitting tension is observed). If the recipient e.g. measures 62 cm around the bust, you should knit size 6-7 years. A blouse in size 6-7 years has a waist measurement of 71 cm and in the above example will give a range of movement (positive ease) of 9 cm. If the measured bust measurement deviates from the age guide, you should be aware of adapting the lengths to the person you are knitting for. The same applies if the child is shorter/taller than average.
