Knitting kit for Chunky T-shirt with puff sleeves, in Önling No 4 + silk mohair
There’s something exhilaratingly liberating by taking lots of strands of thin yarn and needles size 10 mm / US 15 and quickly put together a nice little – and at the same time chunky – short-sleeved top. And with puff sleeves, as well! This t-shirt will be beautiful in bright summer colors, in hand-dyed left-overs, in delicate pastel colors… the variations are endless. It will be perfect over a tank top and Birkenstock sandals - or over a summer dress, morning and evening. The design is short and quite oversize, with a positive ease of approx. 15-20 cm / 6-8 inches and normal armholes and pretty puff sleeves.
Chunky T-shirt is worked in a total of 4 strands - 2 strands of our organic merino wool Önling No 4, and 2 strands of the softest silk mohair. Resulting in a complete exquisite and soft t-shirt, with a still light and airy expression.

Directions
The top is worked from the top down, increasing at the 4 raglan stitches. This lets you try on the top as you go and adjust it to fit you perfectly. It is worked in the round in stockinette stitch. After finishing the yoke, the top is divided into body and sleeves, which are finished separately. The length may easily be adjusted to make a shorter or longer top if you prefer.
Please Note:
The price of the yarn kit is calculated based on the amount of yarn included, which is the amount we have used to knit the design according to the above measurements. Should you need more yarn, additional yarn can be purchased at regular prices by placing an order and state LOT number in the comment box at checkout. All designs have been thoroughly calculated and tested.
ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- When you buy a kit for ALL designs from PetiteKnit's, you will receive a printed, pattern together with your yarn, as we are unfortunately not allowed to sell Petite Knits' patterns digitally.
- When you buy a kit for a design from selected books (e.g. Helga Isager), you sometimes have to buy the book separately, in cases where the patterns are not released to be sold separately. It will always be clearly described in the product title, with for example "xx kit, excluding pattern", when the pattern is not included.
- All patterns from Isager are delivered as a printed pattern, as we do not have access to sell these digitally. You will receive your pattern along with your yarn shipment.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
