The Naked Tee

** Choose pattern language before purchase **

The Naked Tee is a long sleeved, thin and soft top in the simplest form. 

It’s straightforward construction and silky smooth texture makes it dreamy in every aspect. 

Yarn

nakedknit cashmere 350 (100% cashmere)

Length / weight: 350 m / 25 g 

or

Gepard Cashmere Lace (100% cashmere) 

Length / weight: 350 m / 25 g 

The Naked Tee is knitted based on your own measurements, but the estimation of the amount of yarn you’ll need is:

S = a stomach circumference of 70-75 cm + 45 cm length: 100 g

M = a stomach circumference of 76-84 cm + 50 cm length: 125 g

L = a stomach circumference of 85-95 cm + 55 cm length:  150 g

XL = a stomach circumference of 96-107 cm + 60 cm length: 150 g

XXL = a stomach circumference of 108-120 cm + 60 cm length: 175 g

Because the tee is knitted based on your own measurements, the actual amount of yarn you’ll need might differ from what is described here and will depend on the circumference of your stomach as well as the length of your upper body. Our recommendation is therefore to always buy an extra skein of yarn. This way, you can be sure that all your yarn will have the exact same colour. You will usually be able to return unopened skeins. 

NB! Cashmere feels soft and delicate against the skin. We therefore strongly urge you to follow the suggestion and use the yarn listed above. We can’t guarantee that the bra won’t feel itchy if you use a different kind of wool than the yarn suggested in this pattern.
