About the pattern
Violetta Blouse is a light and feminine piece, worked bottom-up in a beautiful lace structure with clean folded hems on all edges. Designed with a modern cropped silhouette, it pairs delicate texture with a timeless feel.

Positive Ease and Size Guide
The blouse is designed with a positive ease of approximately 10–15 cm. This means you should measure your bust and add about 10–15 cm to determine which size to knit. For example, if your bust measurement is 95 cm, you should choose size M, which has a bust circumference of 108 cm.

To ensure the blouse achieves the correct dimensions, it is important to meet the gauge both horizontally and vertically. Note that all measurements are given after washing and blocking. Remember to knit a swatch, wash it, and block it before starting the project. The lace structure may stretch significantly in both width and length after washing.
