Oh My Hyacinth Blouse is a light mohair blouse in a spring-like hyacinth lace stitch. It’s feminine and timeless, and the combination of soft silk mohair and positive ease results in an airy and slightly oversized blouse. Suitable for spring and fall days or even chilly summer evenings where you just need a soft hug. Use it as a blouse on its own or layer it over something else.

Oh My Hyacinth Blouse is worked seamlessly from the top down in a lace stitch with two strands silk mohair held together. Back and front are worked flat separately until the armhole is created. From here the body is worked in the round. All edges are finished with a neat i-cord. This pattern is both for you if you only followed a knitting chart once before, and its for you if you already feel confident with knitting charts.
