Knitting Pattern for a light, romantic blouse with puffy sleeves, girly frills and a decorative button row at the back. Due to the special construction of the blouse you can change sides easily and wear it as a classic version - with the button row at the front.
The blouse is knitted in stockinette stitch - except the button rows, the round neck and the hems for the sleeves: these are knitted in moss stitch pattern.
First you knit the body of the blouse in one part until its divided into three parts to form the armholes. Afterwards the sleeves are attached directly to the body of the blouse and are knitted up to a 3⁄4 length . In the end the frills are added to the bottom of the blouse and you attach a round neck hem in moss stitch pattern to the front and back parts.

Available in sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL und XXL.
