Frequently Asked Questions
How is Cumulus Tee O-neck different from the original Cumulus Tee?
This version has a round neckline rather than a rounded V-neck. It is worked from the top down, and all edges are finished with i-cord.
Is Cumulus Tee O-neck meant to be as roomy as the Cumulus blouses?
No. It is designed with approximately 4 cm of positive ease. Compare your bust with this tee’s finished measurements instead of carrying over a blouse size choice.
