Norma Blouse is a classic round-neck sweater. The fit is loose without being oversized.

The sweater is worked from the top down.

Size guide
Norma Blouse has a relaxed fit. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 15-20 cm 6-8 inches in sizes XS-2XL, and 10-15 cm 4-6 inches in sizes 3XL-5XL, relative to your bust circumference.
Sizes (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to European standard sizes and fit a chest measurement of approximately (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm (31.5-33.5) 33.5-35.5 (35.5-37.5) 37.5-39.25 (39.25-43.25) 43.25-47.25 (47.25-51.25) 51.25-55 (55-59) inches.

Example: If your bust measures 88 cm 34.75 inches + 15-20 cm 6-8 inches = 103-108 cm 40.5-42.5 inches. Therefore, you should knit a size S with a bust circumference of 104 cm 41 inches.

The model is wearing size S.
