Release Party - This pattern is 50 % of until May 28th.

Amelia is an elegant blouse with a round yoke and a delicate lace pattern at the bottom of the body. The blouse has short sleeves and is knitted from the top down. Amelia is knitted in 2 of our lovely cotton qualities: Cotton Terry and Recycled Cotton.

The blousen is worked in the round, starting with the neck ribbing, followed by short rows to shape the neckline. Increases are worked continuously down to the armholes, where the work is divided into body and sleeves. The body is knitted in stockinette stitch with increases at both sides to create a slight A-line shape. Before the lace pattern, short rows are worked to make the back slightly longer. The lace pattern is knitted according to a chart. The body is finished with a ribbed hem. The sleeves are knitted in the round in stockinette stitch with continuous decreases. The number of sleeve stitches is reduced before finishing with a ribbed cuff.
