BELLA BLOUSE is an elegant, soft sweater with a delicate, feminine edging around the neckline and on the sleeves.
Stitches are cast on with the Italian cast on method, and the
neckline edging is worked in twisted rib. Then, the edging
around the neckline is worked in fair isle. The yoke is worked in stockinette stitch. To create ease and a good fit across the back and around the neckline, short rows are worked at the upper part of the yoke. Before the work is divided into body and sleeves, increases are worked along the armholes. Body and sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch. The body is finished with a ribbing, and the sleeves are finished with a fair isle edging as well as with a ribbing and Italian bind off.

How much positive ease you like in your clothes varies from
