Rhubarb Wrap is a sweet little wrap-blouse, featuring an allover eyelet patterning and a ruffle collar. The wrap-design makes the blouse easy to put on your child, and an extra button on the inside keeps the inner front piece in place.
Rhubarb Wrap is worked from the bottom up with either 1 strand of Merino, Cotton Merino or Pure Silk.
Sleeves are worked in the round, while the body is worked in one piece back and forth up to the underarms. Body and sleeves are then joined on one needle and the blouse shaped with raglan decreases up to the neckline. The collar is worked separately back and forth, and is finished by attaching it to the blouse by knitting the stitches from the collar and neckline together.
The Rhubarb stitch pattern is charted only.
