Frequently Asked Questions
Is Cloud Tee as oversized as Cloud Sweater?
No. Cloud Tee is designed with approximately 6 cm of positive ease. Use its own finished measurements rather than choosing the same size solely because you have knitted Cloud Sweater.
How does Cloud Tee get its shaped shoulders and funnel neck?
Short rows shape the back yoke and each shoulder before the body is joined in the round. Sleeve stitches are picked up at the armholes, and the stocking-stitch funnel neck is worked last.
