***20 % release Sale! Thank you so much for your support! No coupon code needed.. Sale ends on August 2nd.*** **Apple Blossom Blouse** The Apple Blossom Blouse is a slightly oversized, lightweight summer blouse featuring a dramatic, stunning low (and reversible) back. Delicate picot edges finish the neckline, back seam and the long sleeves. It is a super quick knit and due to it's lightweight yarn a perfect project for summer! The blouse is worked top down using charts. Front panels are knitted separately and then joined to form the front of the body, which is worked flat to the underarm. Stitches are then picked up for the back panels. After the back is finished with a picot edge and joined, the body is joined in the round and worked to the hem. Sleeves are picked up around the armholes and shaped with rapid decreases for a relaxed fit at the underarm and a slimmer upper sleeve. Please measure your gauge before and after blocking, since the fabric will probably stretch. You’ll want to keep this growth in mind whilst deciding on your back depth. **SIZES** 1 (2, 3, 4) [5, 6, 7] {8, 9, 10} *11, 12* Finished bust circumference: 94 (100, 106, 115) [125, 135, 145] {155, 165, 175} *185, 195* cm 37 (39.25, 41.75, 45.25) [49.25, 53.25,57] {61, 65, 69} *72.75, 76.75* inches Sweater is designed with a positive ease of 20cm / 7 ⅞" at the bust.
