Meet Petunia!! She’s a relaxed-fit tee shirt with panels of elegant lace, made to ebb and flow with your body, just the way you are! She’s got LOTS of positive ease—and the lace sections make the fit so adaptable! She fits beautifully!

You can go with tunic, hip, or cropped length, and make the sleeves as long or short as you like!

I created this design to fit as my body transformed through pregnancy, then to be just as wearable postpartum and beyond! I have loved the fit of this top for the last few years as I’ve evolved and changed sizes!

CONSTRUCTION:
Worked from the bottom up, mostly in the round, with seaming needed only at the top of each shoulder. Yarn is attached to create the sleeves in the round.

SIZING:
Sizes 1--9 with approximately 8-10” / 20-25 cm of positive ease. Choose the recommended size for a flowy fit, or size down for a more sleek fit.
