THIS IS A PRINTED PATTERN.
Anker Tee is worked from the top down. The yoke is worked in sections of rib with increases in the round, followed by classic raglan increases when the stockinette stitch section begins. The sleeves are worked at the end, either on double-pointed needles or on circular needles using the Magic Loop technique. Anker Tee has no finishing other than weaving in ends.
Size guide
Note that these measurements are only achieved if the correct gauge is kept.
Anker Tee is designed to have approx. 0 cm [0 inches] of positive ease, meaning it is designed to be 0 cm [0 inches] larger in circumference than your widest upper body measurement.
Before beginning your project, measure yourself with a measuring tape around your bust (or your widest upper body part) to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 90 cm [35Ā½ inches] you should knit a size S. A size S shirt has a finished circumference of 90 cm [35Ā½ inches], which in the given example would mean 0 cm [0 inches] of positive ease.
