Evelyn Striped Blouse, knitting pattern

Evelyn striped blouse, knitting pattern 

There is just something special about stripes - we love stripes, especially narrow stripes. This t-shirt is a classic, simple and elegant blouse with happy stripes. We work it in our Önling No 12, which is a lovely mix of cotton and wool.

You get a light and pretty t-shirt, which is perfect all year round. Use it alone during a summers evening, or under a jacket or cardigan in the winter. The sleeves are designed as 3/4 length, and the pattern also describes how to make long sleeves. The blouse is designed as slightly oversize with 5-10 cm extra circumference than your bust measurement. The neck has a pretty double edge effect.

Directions: The T-shirt is worked in the round, from the top down. Stitches are cast on using the provisional crochet cast-on method; this allows the neckline to be adjusted at the end of the process. Short rows are worked across the shoulders and the neckline in the beginning to make the back of the neck higher. The yoke is worked with increases.

Subsequently, the yoke stitches are divided into body and sleeves, which are finished separately.
