This pretty, feminine “blouse” features daisy garlands at hem, cuffs and around the circular yoke. A small sawtooth edging at hem and cuffs, and a picot cast off at neckline add delicate details.

The lace edging at the hem is knit first, then stitches are picked up to work the daisy detail and stocking stitch body in the round. Three-quarter length sleeves are worked to the armholes, where all pieces are joined and worked in the round to the end of the circular yoke. Sewing is minimal so you will be wearing your blouse almost as soon as it is knit!

Note that I am now retired from knit design, but if you purchase the pattern and have any queries, you can reach me at siemens@sympatico.ca
