Johanne Linen Blouse is a light blouse knitted top-down in a luxurious yarn blend of linen and silk.

Johanne Linen Blouse is knitted top-down. The stitches are cast on using a provisional cast on. First, the upper part of the back is knitted, then stitches for the front pieces are picked up – one shoulder at a time. The neckline is then shaped, and the front pieces are joined to form the front. Under the armholes, the front and back pieces are joined, and knitting continues in the round until bind-off. The sleeve stitches are picked up directly on the body. Finally, stitches are picked up for the neckline.
