Yugi

Yugi is worked top down, flat until the underarms. After that, it is joined to work in the round. A small number of decreases are worked immediately after joining for underarm shaping. The tee is mildly cropped, and easily adjustable. Positive ease has been built into the top (6”/15cm), so if you’d like to work it with a different ease, please refer to the chart to choose a size.

While this was designed using Yarn Matter’s gorgeous Rainbow After the Storm kit, the color choices are endless: cycled color gradient as shown, a slow color gradient, color blocked stripes, only having one CC… You can even work as a fully solid colored top! If you’d like to see some options and suggestions on ways to alter this top, please check out this blog post!
