Echo Tee

Product Details

Note: This listing is for a downloadable PDF pattern to knit your own Echo Tee

Experience Level: Intermediate

Ribbed chevrons reverberate across the bottom and yoke of this comfortable tee shirt. The Echo Tee is a worsted weight version of the HeartBeats Sweater. Both are modern, graphic knits that are as fun to make as they are to wear.

Construction Details: This is an extended drop-shoulder style pullover tee shirt. The pattern includes instructions for working long sleeves if you prefer a sweater. There is short-row shaping on the shoulders to create a flattering fit. For the tee shirt, the body is worked in two separate pieces that are seamed together and then the neck and armhole edgings are worked in the round. For the long-sleeved version, four separate pieces are worked and then seamed together. The pattern stitch is written in chart form and in words, knitters can choose their preference.
