The Pineapple Blouse is a top-down design that makes the perfect addition to your spring and summer handmade wardrobe, especially when worked in a yellow color. It features an oversized, cropped silhouette that offers a relaxed yet flattering fit. The standout detail is the wide sleeves, worked in a textured Diamond Stitch to beautifully mimic the distinctive surface of a pineapple. The neckline, hem and cuffs are finished with Double Knitted bands, giving the garment neat, well-structured edges.
