Buddleja Tee
I’m currently having trouble paying through Ravelry, my patterns can be purchased on Boosty. On this site you pay for the post, it contains a PDF file with the English version of the pattern. Payment via PayPal is only possible via private messages, as it is not possible to link it to the Ravelry page. I apologize for the temporary convenience.
CONSTRUCTION
Straight T-short with 10-18cm/4-7” of positive ease, V-neck and short sleeves. Asymmetric shoulder slope and offset sleeves allow for better fit, especially in larger sizes.
The T-short is decorated with a vertical panel of 4 petals lines, created with short-rows in garter (main body of the t-short is worked in stockinette).
The garment is worked in 1 piece sideways, flat:
• Start at the side of the decorative panel (including the neck opening);
• Work the right half of the garment all the way to the cuff;
• Pick up live stitches of the panel cast-on & work left half symmetrically;
• Seam the sides and sleeves together and reinforce shoulders with crochet chains to prevent the fabric from sagging;
YARN: sport-weight Tussah or linen (~300-320m/330-350 yds per 100g/3.5oz) in 2 colors (see yardage below).
The sample was knit out of hand died tussah yarn (100% tussah, 154m/168yds per 50g/1.8 oz ball) in two colours). It is important to use yarns with high linen content for the drape (cotton, silk and bamboo should also work, but no more than 20% wool content!). Don’t worry if your fabric skews and looks uneven, linen will even our after blocking. Suggested substitutes:
• Karen Oberg ‘Kalinka’ (320m/350yds per 100g/3.5oz, 100% linen)
• Katia ‘Lino 100%’ (150m/164yds per 50g/1.8oz; 100% linen)
• BC Garn ‘Lino’(150m/164yds per 50g/1.8oz; 100% linen)
NEEDLES:
• Main: 3.25mm/US3 (or size to get gauge!) circulars, 2 pairs: on a 40 & 80cm/16 & 32” cables;
• I-cord/hem: 3mm/US2.5 (or 1 size smaller than the main) circulars on a ~60cm/24” cable.
GAUGE (PER 1010CM/ 44” AFTER WET-BLOCKING, SLIGHTLY STRETCHED OUT WIDTH-WISE)
• Garter stitch: 21 stitches by 22 ridges (44 rows);
• Stockinette: 20 stitches by 28 rows
Pattern includes 6 sizes, for own bust circumference of 80-140cm/32-52” intended to be worn with 10-18cm/4-7” of positive ease.
