Ribbed Tee Knitting Pattern

Make a Top That Actually Fits How You Move

Most ready-to-wear tops gap at the bust, pull across the back, or sit wrong on the shoulders. This one starts at the top and builds around your body, so the fit is built into the making, not guessed at afterward.

Six sizes with a flexible rib that works body-fitting or relaxed depending on where you land in the range. Once you know how this construction works, you'll feel it in the result.

Skill Level: Intermediate
Finished Size: Bust 80–120 cm / 31–47"

• Knitted top-down with raglan shaping, so you can try it on as you go and adjust length before you bind off
• Half Fisherman's Rib gives the body structure and stretch without adding bulk, and the bell-shaped sleeves are worked in the same stitch for a clean, cohesive look
• Side shaping is worked through symmetrical increases and decreases, so the waist follows a natural curve without seams or guesswork

     "I wasn't sure I was ready for this, but the construction actually made a lot of sense once I got going."
