Rita Tee
The Rita Tee is a cropped ruffle sleeve top with bold filet detailing across the body of the garment, with a matching row across the ruffle sleeves. The classic boat neck and deep sleeve holes makes this top a great make for wearing throughout Summer.
Rita is made from two rectangles with a very easy (and addictive) filet pattern with sleeves worked directly onto the body for minimal seaming. It’s worked with double crochet stitches and chains, so it makes the ideal garment for beginners and experienced crocheters alike. It’s designed to be made with cotton, but any plant-based yarn will achieve a similar drape.
The pattern is worked with the rows laid vertically on the bottom, which ensures that your filet section is at the hem of the garment. Both the sleeves and body panels can be altered for a longer or shorter fit, just add or remove stitches to the body and rows from the sleeves. (Note: adding or removing length will affect the amount of yarn required)
Bust sizes given as XS (S, M, L, XL, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X): 82 (92, 104, 114, 124, 134, 144, 152, 166) cm requiring 629 (692, 787, 874, 943, 1066, 1237, 1371, 1550) metres of DK weight cotton yarn.
This pattern is available in both UK & US terminology so you don’t have to translate stitches!
