Ivy Tee is a timeless, elegant knit featuring a classic crew neck and beautifully shaped shoulders for a refined, flattering fit. Worked seamlessly from the top down, it combines clean lines with effortless wearability, making it a versatile wardrobe staple you’ll reach for season after season.

The Ivy Tee is designed to have approx. -2 cm [¾ inches] of negative ease, meaning it is designed to be approx. -2 cm [¾ inches] smaller in circumference than your bust measurement. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are designed to fit a bust circumference of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm [29½-31½ (31½-33½) 33½-35½ (35½-37½) 37½-39½ (39½-43¼) 43¼-47¼ (47¼-51¼) 51¼-55 (55-59) inches].

The measurements for the finished tee can be found on the front page of the pattern (note that these measurements only apply if the correct gauge is maintained throughout). Measure yourself before beginning your project, to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 90 cm [35½ inches] around your bust (or around the widest part of your upper body) you should knit a size S. A size S tee has a bust circumference of 87 cm [34¼ inches] which in the given example would give you 3 cm [1¼ inches] of negative ease.

Intermediate

The patterns in this category require that you have experience with and feel confident in using the basic knitting techniques, as the patterns contain more advanced techniques for example for casting on, picking up and knitting stitches or working short rows.

You may need to keep track of multiple elements at the same time – for example you may need to work a charted pattern while working shaping at the same time.
