FINISHED SIZEAbout 37 (41, 45, 49, 53, 57, 61)" (94 [104,
114.5, 124.5, 134.5, 145, 152.5] cm) bust/chestcircumference. Sweater shown measures45" (114.5 cm).
YARNSportweight (#2 Fine).
Shown here: SWTC Bamboo (100% bamboo;250 yd [229 m]/100 g): #138 purplexed, 5 (5, 5, 6,6, 7, 7) balls.
NEEDLESSize U.S. 5 (3.75 mm): 24" (60 cm) circular.
Adjust needle size if necessary toobtain the correct gauge.
NOTIONSMarkers (m); waste yarn for stitch holders;row counter (optional); tapestry needle.
GAUGE28 stitches and 36 rows = 4" (10 cm)in stockinette stitch.
A pretty twist-stitch pattern on back and along front neck
provides decoration and shaping at the same time. Decreases
are worked into the patterning, giving the body of this dolman
tee an A-line shape that flatters full figures. The back and
front are worked upward from the lower edge with stitches
for the sleeves cast-on at each side. The sleeves are gradually
increased as the piece is worked to the shoulder line, and the
pieces are grafted together at the shoulders. This style works
well for most plus-sized women and offers an especially
strong option for women in the largest sizes. Bamboo yarnkeeps the fabric light and breathable.
