Cloud Blouse - Petite Knit

It is perfect with two threads of Soft Silk Mohair or two threads of Kid Silk Mohair - hand-dyed. Here we have chosen Silk Mohair from Isager.

Cloud Blouse is knitted from top to bottom. First, the upper part of the back is knitted back and forth, and short rows are knitted to create a shoulder slope. Then the shoulder parts are knitted separately back and forth. Here too, short rows are knitted. The parts are then joined at the front and knitting continues on the front piece. The front and back pieces are then joined to shape the body, which is knitted in the round on a circular needle. The sleeves are knitted in the round on a circular needle from stitches picked up along the armhole. The smooth knitted collar of the neck is finally knitted from picked-up stitches.

Knit a swatch to find the needle size that gives you the correct gauge.

Size guide

Cloud Blouse should have a positive ease of about 12-15 cm. Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a bust measurement, measured on the body, of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm. The measurements of the finished blouse are given on the front of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine which size will fit you best. For example, if you measure 90 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A blouse in size S has a chest width of 102 cm and will in the mentioned example give a positive ease of 12 cm.
