Yarn kit for the Amélie Tee Kids by PetiteKnit.

The Amélie T-shirt has a classic, straight cut and charming stripes. The fit is uncomplicated and very comfortable. Your little ones will simply love this shirt!

The Amélie Tee is knitted seamlessly from the top down in the round using Sunday by Sandnes Garn. The beautifully soft merino wool is delightfully fine and feels incredibly good. At the same time, Sunday is highly practical for everyday wear and easy to care for. 

The simple striped pattern is motivating and adds variety to the knitting. The very even color distribution creates a lively and interesting pattern. This makes the shirt wonderfully summery, cheerful, and nautical.

Knit the Amélie Tee to fit yourself too—we also have matching adult knitting kits in our shop!

Size Guide

The Amélie Tee Junior should have approximately 9 cm of positive ease in relation to the chest circumference. Sizes 1–2 (2–3), 3–4 (4–5), 5–6 (6–7), 7–8 (8–9), 9–10 (10–11), 11–12 (12–13), 13–14 years correspond to a body chest circumference of approximately 53 (54), 56 (57), 59 (62), 64 (68), 72 (75), 78 (80), 82 cm. The finished shirt measurements can be found on the cover page (please note that these measurements only apply if the gauge is correct). If you/the recipient has a chest circumference of 62 cm, you should choose size 6–7 years. A size 6–7 years shirt has a chest circumference of 71 cm and would therefore have 9 cm of positive ease in this case. If the measured chest circumference differs from the age indication, you should adjust the length to fit the person who will wear it. The same applies if the child is smaller/larger than average.
