Tenby is a bottom up lace t-shirt with a bust size of 87.5-179cm (24.5-70.5in), designed to be worked with 11-17cm (41/2-7in) of positive ease. The top is worked in the round to the armhole divide, then the piece is worked flat in two halves to the shoulders, which are shaped using short rows and cast off using the three needle bind off. Stitches are then picked up around the neck and armholes and a rib border is worked.
Shaping is worked in the lace pattern on the armholes and the neck. The lace pattern is broken up at the sides by a garter stitch panel. Across the size range the armhole shaping is slightly different in order for the armhole bands to finish in a similar place on all sizes.
