BUENOS AIRES TEE

The Buenos Aires Tee is a tight fitting, lightweight and funky top with ruffles and short sleeves. It’s perfect for summer evenings or warm spring/autumn days.

The tee comes in seven different sizes; XXS to 2XL. It’s knit top down and in the round with raglan increases leaving you very few ends to weave in (we love!) and making it easy to adjust to your preferences. The pattern is very stretchy and the ruffles should be placed on the edge of the shoulders so I recommend you choose a size close to your bust size +- a few cm in order to get the most beautiful fit.

The pattern starts with a fine stockinette neckline followed by wavy lace over the body and delicate ruffles over the shoulders to give a romantic look. It’s moderately easy to knit if you are an experienced beginner.

I hope you’ll enjoy the #buenosairestee as much as I have enjoyed designing it!
