Tulipan Tee

Description

Design, Text, Fotos © Le Knit (Lene Holme Samsoe)

The Passport of the Tulipan Tee consists of a simple combination of hole patterns and left stitches, which together result in a wonderful graphical structure. Patterns and shape of the passes are created automatically when you follow the diagram. The Tulipan tea is worked from top to bottom and the neck cut is formed with shortened rows knitted after the fret.

Konstruktion
The Tulipan tea is worked from top to bottom. After the collar, shortened rows are made (in back and forth rows), so that the neckline on the front becomes deeper. Afterwards, a round pass is knitted and the body and sleeves are completed separately.

Größenguide
The Tulipan tea is designed with a range of movement (positive ease) of 5-10 cm. The depicted version has a range of movement of about 12 cm, i.e. that the depicted photo model has a 12 cm smaller breast circumference than the sweater. Take measurement from your chest circumference (or the widest part of your upper body) and choose the size based on it (the front shows the finished dimensions of the shirt).
The positive ease is the difference between the finished knit piece and your measurements. For example, if your breast circumference is 94 cm, you get a Gr. M has a range of movement of 10 cm (104 cm – 94 cm = 10 cm).
The length is measured centrally on the back, excluding the neck lining.
