Knitting Pattern in French for a fluffy crop top with deep armholes, short, ruffled sleeves and a double folded collar for the round neck in sizes XS | S | M (L | XL | 2XL) 3XL | 4XL.
Structure:
The summer tee is knitted top down in stockinette stitch. First of all, the back part is worked back and forth in rows and the armholes are shaped with increases. For the front part, you pick up stitches for both shoulder parts along the back part and start to shape the round neck with increases. Afterwards, the armholes of the front part are shaped the same way as the back part. As soon as you have reached the total number of stitches, the tee is closed to the round and finished in one piece.
In the end, you are going to pick up stitches along the armholes to knit the ruffles sleeves with short rows. Afterwards, the tee is finished with a double folded collar in 1x1 ribbing.
The fit of the tee is slightly oversized with a little positive ease (5 to 10 cm). The romantic look of the simple tee is created by the short ruffled sleeves.
