Tapestry Tee Guide [Digital Crochet Pattern]
If you’ve been looking for that *one t-shirt* with the perfect drape, you’ve come to the right place! This guide will help you construct your go-to crochet tee by mirroring the dimensions and fit of your favorite closet staple tee (you know the one), and includes instructions for both short sleeves and long sleeves.
Unlike a traditional pattern with stitch counts and set sizing, this guide is gauge-less and incorporates techniques I use to self-draft pieces for my own wardrobe. You’ll need your favorite tee shirt on-hand to serve as a guide, and a flexible, open mind ready to experiment!
Though the pattern does not have a set gauge, yarn and tool details, as well as stitch and row counts, are included for the sample piece pictured in the guide (on a 31-inch [79-cm] bust) to help give a sense of scale. The pattern is written for intermediate crocheters.
Sizes: Made-to-measure (any size)
Materials:
The sample tee was constructed to fit a 31-inch (79-cm) bust and used approximately 200g of yarn (100g/212m weight) with a 6mm crochet hook. As the guide does not have set sizes, you may wish to size the crochet hook up or down depending on the yarn weight you’ve chosen and your desired fabric stiffness. Recommended materials include:
your favorite tee from your closet to use as a guide
aran/light worsted yarn (see yarn amount suggestions in the materials photo in the photo carousel)
crochet hook (6mm or similar)
removable stitch markers
tapestry needle
scissors
Gauge: This guide is technically gauge-less, but following the g/m of the suggested yarn and using a 6mm hook (or similar) is recommended. Swatch out a few squares to get a feel for the drape of the fabric before you start!
