Mae - a cropped cotton tee knitting pattern
Mae is a summer-y cotton cropped tee. Featuring puff sleeves, this tee is perfect for bold, feminine summer aesthetics.
The Mae Summer Crop is designed so the hem falls around your natural waistline, with the waist of the garment sitting slightly higher. A faux seam sits along the sides of the body and along the inside of each sleeve, with short rows creating most of the capped sleeves, and increases and decreases to shape the puffs. She is worked in the round from the bottom up with set-in sleeves.
Construction
Mae is worked in the round from the bottom up with set-in sleeves. A set of short rows shapes most of the capped sleeves with increases and decreases to create the puffs.
