Metres are converted from PetiteKnit’s stated quantities.
Before you begin
Make a washed or blocked swatch and check both gauge and fabric before starting. Buy complete balls, allowing extra yarn for swatching, changes to length or fit, and differences in gauge. The metre figures are based on the designer’s quantities, rather than exact measured consumption.
Frequently asked questions
Should I choose Amélie Tee Junior by age or chest size?
Use the child’s chest measurement and the finished chest table; age is a guide. The intended fit has approximately 9 cm of positive ease, and the length can be adjusted to suit the child.
Are all three stripe colours essential?
No. The third colour is optional. The Sunday table lists each colour separately so you can plan either a two- or three-colour tee.
