Other: approx. 1-1.5 m of thin elastic, which must be used at the sleeves to ensure their puffy effect.
Workflow: The blouse is knitted in the round from top to bottom in stockinette stitch with a high turned neckline. After this, the carrier piece is started, which is shaped further back using the German Short Rows technique. To give the blouse its draped effect, double indentations are made on the yoke, after which it is knitted straight down in stockinette stitch, to finally knit on an i-cord border at the bottom of the blouse. The sleeves are then knitted, the puffed effect of which is shaped along the way by means of increases and decreases - the sleeves are also finished with an i-cord edge, as with the body. Finally, elastic is introduced in 2 places at each sleeve to make them puffy.

Remember the knitting test.
