Sommerlet er en enkel og let bluse at strikke og den skal naturligvis strikkes i din yndlingsfarve.

Strikker du den i uld, kan den bruges som en vest med en tynd, langærmet bluse under.

Sommerlet er strikket i ét stykke - oppefra og ned. Der strikkes rundt hele vejen igennem arbejdet. Den er hurtig at strikke og der er kun få ender at hefte, når arbejdet er færdigt.

Den er her strikket med talje og et lille ærme

Strikkefasthed: 20 m x ca. 28 p = 10 x 10 cm på pind 4. Du kan evt. bruge p 3.5 til kanterne

Garn:Cecilia fra Svarta Fåret. 50 gr = 110 m eller brug et andet garn, der giver strikkefastheden.

Størrelsen er nem at tilpasse netop din overvidde ved hjælp af flere eller færre udtagninger

Blusens færdige overvidde er her i 7 størrelser fra ca. 70 – 130 cm

English version:
Sommerlet is an easy blouse to knit, choose your favorite color and get started! You can knit this in wool, or a wool blend for winter and it can be worn with a blouse or t-shirt underneath or in cotton, linen or silk for the summer. This is a basic pattern with different options depending on what kind of yarn you choose.

This pattern is knitted in the round - top down - in one piece from start to finish. It is fast to knit and there are only few ends to weave in when you have finished knitting.

You can add waist shaping if you like – instructions are included in this pattern.

Gauge: 5 sts and 7 rows/ inch in stockinette st. on 4 mm (US 6) circular knitting needles, or size to obtain gauge. You can use a needle one size smaller for the neck and bottom borders if you wish.

Yarn: Cecilia from “SvartaFaaret”. (50 gr = 110 m) was used for the pictured sweater, but you can use any yarn you wish, that will obtain the correct gauge.
The advantage of knitting top down is that it can be tested along the way and the circumference can be adjusted with fewer or more increases at the raglan lines.
Finished measurement for 7 sizes from XS – 2XL Bust approx. 70 – 130 cm (28” – 50”)
