Introduction to the Funfetti Cupcake Tee & Fit Guide

Updated: Dec 8, 2021



 

Knit from one variegated colorway and one solid, this tee can be worn on its own or paired with a blouse for a topper as we move through the seasons. This tee is size inclusive and totally

customizable in width and length! Dive your stash to turn that perfect indie dyed skein into a stunning top!



DIMENSIONS


Varies. See the FIT GUIDE. Sample dimensions 37” (92.5 cm) bust; 15.5” (39 cm) length.


YARN


A fingering weight yarn wool with a wool / silk blend at approximately 4 yards (3.7 m) per gram in a contrasting color (CC) and main color (MC). See table on Page 3 for exact requirements.


The sample was knit using one 100 gram skein each of Emma’s Yarn Super Silky 80% SW merino / 20% silk in No Place Like Home for the CC and Knitwise Fibers Silk Sock 80% SW merino / 20% silk in Mink for the MC.


GAUGE


25 stitches and 31 rounds = 4” (10cm) in stockinette in the round, blocked


Gauge is important for this project, and I highly recommend that you check gauge prior to

knitting this piece.

US 5 (3.75 mm) circular needle with a 24” (60 cm) long cable, or size required to obtain gauge.


NOTIONS


Stitch marker for BOR, cable needle, tapestry needle, blocking materials
