Sunday Tee Junior Knitting Pattern
The Sunday Tee Junior is a beautifully simple top-down knit for little ones — a circular yoke worked in the round in a classic rib pattern, shaped with smooth increases, before flowing into a relaxed stockinette body and sleeves. Finished with a neat folded edge at the hem and cuffs, it has the kind of quiet, considered detail that makes it a joy to knit and a pleasure to wear.
Sized from 6–9 months through to 12–14 years, this is the pattern you’ll return to again and again — in a whisper-soft merino or a crisp DK, it grows up beautifully with the child.

Size Guide
The Sunday Tee Junior is designed with approx. 6 cm [2¼ inches] of positive ease. Measure around the fullest part of the child’s chest to find the right size — for example, a 56 cm [22 inch] chest corresponds to a size 3–4 years, giving a finished bust of 62 cm [24½ inches]. If the child’s measurements differ from the age guide, lengths can be adjusted to suit. Full schematics are included in the pattern.
