The Bennett Blouse is a romantic knit inspired by the Regency era of the early 1800s. The body, worked in solid, sparkly Athena, is reminiscent of a bodice worn over a delicate, gossamer chiffon chemise, with its bust and sleeves worked in luxurious Mohair Silk. The blouse is worked bottom up, and the sleeves are picked up at the end and worked down.

Ease: Neutral. Note that the bust is worked much larger than the intended bust, and then ruched to fit the approximate size.
