Groupie

Introducing the Groupie T-shirt—a stylish and easy-to-wear knit pattern that’s perfect for any wardrobe! This cozy sweater is ingeniously crafted seamlessly from the top down, making it a joy to knit and wear. The neck is elegantly shaped using short rows, enhancing the overall fit and style. As you progress, the dropped saddle shoulders are formed by increasing along the shoulder markers, providing a comfortable and flattering silhouette.

Upon reaching the desired body width, you’ll separate the back and front to work each section for the armhole length. This method creates a beautifully tailored fit. Once the armholes are completed, you’ll joyfully join the front and back to seamlessly work the body in rounds down to the hem, ensuring no seams disrupt the flow of your design. After finishing the body, simply pick up the sleeve stitches and knit sleeves in the round, completing your fashionable Groupie T-shirt.

When selecting a size, aim for approximately 8-12 cm (3-4.75 in) of positive ease at the bust for the best fit. For reference, the pink sample shown is in Size S and features 9 cm (3.5 in) of positive ease at the bust, making it both trendy and comfortable to wear.

Before you dive into this exciting project, remember to check your gauge after blocking. You'll want to achieve 23 sts x 32 rs = 10 x 10 cm / 4x4 in in stockinette stitch, and 24 sts x 32 rs = 10 x 10 cm / 4x4 in in the stitch pattern. This ensures your Groupie T-shirt will fit perfectly when finished, adding a delightful new piece to your knitted collection!

With its seamless construction and stylish design, the Groupie T-shirt pattern is not only a fantastic project for knitters of all skill levels but also a great addition to any modern wardrobe. Whether you’re looking for a casual piece to wear on a sunny day or a stylish layering option, this pattern has you covered!
