Construction:
This is a floating fitted straight Tee made bottom up in one piece in the round up to the arm holes. Then it is knit flat with shaped shoulders and a round neck hole. The hem starts with a rolled band. The intriguing pattern is created through stripes which are spaced differently going up and have slipped stitches. The shaping results just from the stretchy material. The neck band and the arms finish with a small rolled band. The short arms are shaped with short rows. The shoulders are seamed with a single crochet line to add a visible seam. They are shaped only in the front. The top should have no ease around your bust. But surely you can add ease if you like it more comfortable.
