Method: The blouse is knitted top-down in the round, in reverse Stockinette Stitch.
First, the narrow and double layered yoke of the blouse is knitted in Stockinette Stitch, and then a series of increases are made to create the volume of the body. Hereafter, stitches are picked up along the edge of the yoke for the sleeves, which also are voluminous and knitted in reverse Stockinette Stitch. To finish the blouse, a thin elastic thread is inserted into the shoulder edge, to secure the right fit.
