The Jenny Blouse is worked from the top down. First, the back yoke is worked back and forth in the smock pattern with short rows. Next, stitches are picked up and knitted along the top of the back yoke and the shoulders are worked from these stitches, also with short rows. The body is worked in the round on a circular needle. The sleeves are worked in the round in the smock pattern. The pattern includes instructions for working the sleeves with and without decreases. At the end, stitches are picked up and knitted for the folded neck edge.
Knit a swatch to check your gauge before starting your project. Remember to wash the swatch before measuring your gauge.
Size guide
The Jenny Blouse is designed to have approx. 8 cm [3¼ inches] of positive ease, meaning it is designed to be approx. 8 cm [3¼ inches] larger in circumference than your chest measurement. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are designed to fit a chest measurement of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95 100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm [29½-31½ (31½-33½) 33½-35½ (35½-37½) 37½-39½ (39½-43¼) 43¼-47¼ (47¼-51¼) 51¼-55 (55-59) inches]. The bust measurements for the finished blouse are listed on the front page of the pattern. Measure yourself before starting your project to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 94 cm [37 inches] around your chest (or around the widest part of your upper body), you should knit a size M. A blouse in size M has a bust circumference of 102 cm [40¼ inches] which in the given example would give you 8 cm [3¼ inches] of positive ease.

Published Thursday, 2 July 20265 out of 5Brilliant place to shop at "Ribbon Rose". I shop mostly online. If I need advice always a friendly helpful voice on the end of the phone. Beautiful range of all wool, patterns and kits. Parcels arrive often overnight. Love Sandnes Garn Sunday 4ply. My latest "go to". Amazing colour range.

Published Saturday, 20 June 20265 out of 5This is one of my 'go to' mohair yarns when double stranding. The wool content adds a light touch of extra robustness, the yarn is delicious and soft and gives me the halo I'm after. Highly recommend
