Light up your summer with a Bonfire Tee! This tee features an eye-catching colorwork yoke and a classic relaxed fit for no-fuss styling.

Construction
The Bonfire Tee is knit seamlessly from the top down. The neckline is cast on and short rows are worked to raise
the back of the neck for a comfortable fit. The colorwork yoke is knit, then the body and sleeves are separated and worked from the top down.

Selecting a Size
This tee is intended to be worn with 2-6” / 5-15 cm of positive ease. Select a size 2-6” / 5-15 cm larger than your chest circumference. Measurements below are for the fin- ished garment after blocking. Samantha wears size 4 with +2.25 / 5.5 cm of positive ease and is 5’6” / 167.5 cm tall.

Finished Chest Circumference
1 (2, 3, 4) 5, 6, 7 {8, 9, 10}

81.5 (91.5, 101.5, 112) 122, 132, 142 {152.5, 162.5, 172.5} cm

Needles
Needle A (Collar)
One 16” / 40 cm circular needle, US 2 / 2.75 mm
or one size smaller than needle size needed to get gauge

Needle B (Main Fabric: Beginning of Yoke)
One 16” / 40 cm circular needle or longer, US 3 / 3.25 mm or size needed to get gauge

Needle C (Colorwork)
One 24” / 60 cm circular needle or longer, US 5 / 3.75 mm or two sizes larger than needle size needed to get gauge

I highly recommend swatching in both single-color and stranded colorwork to see if you require a larger
needle size for the pattern’s colorwork rounds, as it is not uncommon for one’s stranded gauge to be tighter than one’s single-color gauge.

Needle D (Main Fabric: Yoke & Tee Body)
One 24” / 60 cm circular needle or longer, US 3 / 3.25 mm or size needed to get gauge

Needle E (Hem Ribbing)
One 24” / 60 cm circular or longer, US 2 / 2.75 mm or one size smaller than needle size needed to get gauge

Needle F (Sleeves)
One 40” / 100 cm circular needle for magic loop or DPNs, US 3 / 3.25 mm or size needed to get gauge

Needle G (Cuff Ribbing)
One 40” / 100 cm circular needle for magic loop or DPNs, US 2 / 2.75 mm or one size smaller than needle size needed to get gauge

Gauge

Please note that we may need to ship your order in multiple packages if it exceeds our weight threshold or if the stock is arriving in multiple shipments. We appreciate your patience as we process your order.

For our brighter and neon colors, we do our best to ensure the dye is set. However, for high contrast colors—for example, if you use bright pink with undyed yarns—we recommend using a color catcher when wet blocking and washing. This will absorb any excess dye that may bleed.

As a small business, we may need to contact you to request additional shipping fees if the cost exceeds our allowance. We hope you understand that we cannot absorb these costs as we are a micro business. We do ship worldwide, and are GSPR registered. Our GSPR details will be attached to the outer packaging of your order. If you are based in the USA, Under the US de minimis rules, if your order is under £575, you will not pay any additional tariffs despite the recent announcement.
