The Tori Blouse is a baby-dol style knit blouse with a roomy silhouette and a sweet,
playful charm. Its gentle gathers and relaxed fit wrap you in comfort while adding a light,
carefree mood.

“Tori” is a pure Korean word meaning little child, carrying the image of innocence and love.
Just like its name, the Tori Blouse wil bring a touch of warmth and a spark of joy to your
everyday moments.

Worked from the top down.
After shaping the shoulders on the back piece with ‘German shourt rows’, armhole
increases are worked down to the underarm. During the armhole increase section,
a horizontal chain technique and a ruffle-making technique are incorporated.
Once the back is worked to the underarm, the stitches are placed on waste yarn.
From the shoulders of the back, stitches are picked up to work the front in the same way
with short rows and armhole increases.
At the underarm, front and back are joined to work in the round to the desired length.
Sleeves are picked up around the armhole and worked in the round, with regular
decreases for a natural shaping.
After the decreases, the sleeves are finished in the same manner as the body,
creating a puff sleeve effect.
