I am a big fan of comfortable, simple tops and sweaters that form the basics of our wardrobes. One such item is a short-sleeve raglan tee, which can be easily styled with many pieces like shorts, jeans, or skirts. It also makes a perfect companion to a blazer as a base layer.
I love adding interesting design elements to these basic pieces to make them look more fashionable and stylish. Today, I’d like to introduce my Islet Tee – a short-sleeve raglan top with unique side panels.
Design Features:
• The Islet Tee is knitted in fingering-weight yarn, making it perfect to wear on its own or as a base layer under a jacket or blazer, depending on the weather.
• The round neck and short raglan sleeves contribute to a relaxed and comfortable fit.
• The stylish side panels at the waist create a flattering silhouette and accentuate the waist.
Yarn:
The pattern uses 4-ply fingering-weight yarn. My sample is knitted in an alpaca-linen blend, which makes it warm enough for chilly autumn days. The linen adds a touch of rustic texture to the smooth stockinette fabric.
Pattern Details:
• The pattern is size-inclusive and written for chest sizes ranging from 88 cm (34⅝ inches) to 149 cm (58¾ inches).
• It is beginner-friendly.
Why You’ll Love Your Islet Tee:
• A classic design with unique details that set it apart from other staple pieces.
• Effortless style, making it a perfect wardrobe essential.
• A quick and satisfying knit.
• Easy to modify: You can adjust the length of the body or sleeves, add a pop of colour to the sleeves or ribbing bands for a more stylish look, or experiment with yarn textures to create your own unique style.
