The Milkmaid Mohair Blouse is a romantic blouse worked in double strands of Mohair Silk. The design is inspired by the eighteenth-century chemise à la reine, which was popularized by Marie Antoinette. It has a pretty cabled rib, and a ruffled bust section threaded with ribbon.

Ease: Note that the ruching over the bust makes it hard to give an exact measurement, but rather an estimation after the ruching is complete. Choose the measurement closest to your own, but note that there is an inch or so (a good few cm) of leeway to play with for the ruching.
