Workflow: The blouse is knitted from top to bottom according to the pattern diagram. First, knit the yoke of the blouse, after which stitches are picked up along the turn-on edge of the yoke for sleeves. The sleeves are knitted in the round from top to bottom and finished in twisted rib with i-cord loops at the wrists. Next, stitches are gathered along the closing edge of the support piece for the skirt, after which double increases are made to create volume. The skirt is then knitted according to the pattern diagram and finished with an edge in twisted rib.Finally, stitches are picked up along the neckline to knit the final running course in twisted rib, in which elastic bands are finally inserted.
NOTE: The model in the pictures is knitted in a different yarn than Smuksak's yarn and therefore other materials will also appear in the file.

wash your home knitwear gently with it eucalan
To keep your home knitwear soft, beautiful and durable, hand washing with Eucalan - one is recommended gentle and mild wool soap without rinsing.
HOW TO DO IT:
1. Fill a tub/sink
Use lukewarm water (approx. 30 °C). Add approx. 5 ml (one teaspoon) Eucalan per 4 liters of water.
2. Soak the elastic
Place your knitting needle in the water so that it is completely covered. Let it soak for approx. 15 minutes.
3. Centrifuge or squeeze out the water
Take the knitting out of the water - Eucalan should not be rinsed out, as the wool benefits from the lanolin. Squeeze the water out carefully, without twisting. Spin your knitting at 800-1200 revolutions.
NOTE: You must be sure that your washing machine not takes in cold water during centrifugation. Alternatively, excess water can be gently squeezed out by rolling the elastic in a towel and squeezing gently.
5. Dry flat
Place the elastic in shape (according to the measurements from the recipe) and let it dry lying flat on a towel.
