My crochet pattern testers fell in LOVE with the N-Stitch just like I did! I would LOVE to give them a BIG shout out because they worked really hard on this design. There were many hiccups because of the trying times we are in right now. There were yarn delivery delays, finding time to finish the test, and just trying to function during these troubled times.
I appreciate EVERY single one of them! They are Jolanta Urb, Anita Reinisch, L. Holly George, and Laina Mann Malcolm. Below are their versions of the Nellie Summer Tee.

Leave a long tail for sewing shoulders closed.
Sides:
Lay Right Sides of the panels facing each other.
Use the Table at the top of the pattern for the size of your Armholes. I measured from the top of the panels and placed Stitch Markers where you will stop when sewing sides closed.
Start at the bottom of the panels and sew the sides together using the Whip Stitch, or Mattress Stitch until you get to the Armholes.
If you would like more room at the hips, leave a 2”-4” slit at the bottom on each size of the Panels. I made a 2” slits.
Shoulders:
Using the Table at the top of the pattern, find the size of the neck hole opening.
Place your Stitch Marker where you want to stop the opening on both sides of the top.
Sew the panels together using the Whip Stitch or whichever method you prefer to sew the shoulders closed.
