Pizza Blouse is worked seamlessly top down in the round and with 1 strand of either Merino, Cotton Merino or Pure Silk + 1 strand of Soft Silk Mohair held together throughout. The blouse features an allover eyelet pattern that resembles little pizzas or flowers, extra width in the body, and ribbed edges that complement the feminine lace pattern.
You start with the ribbed neckband and continue with the raglan construction yoke to the underarms. Sleeve stitches are then placed on hold to be worked after the body has been completed. Ribbed edges finish the body and sleeves. The Pizza stitch pattern is charted only.
Tip: If the length is adjusted accordingly, the blouse in size 8 years should also fit a size 10-12 years due to the loose and roomy fit.
