Augustin's No. 14

Augustin's no. 14  is a sculptural and voluminous blouse that, with its draped fit, creates a beautiful fall. The blouse is simple in its construction, but achieves a refinement through the use of picot edges, frills and hole patterns.

Sizes: a (b) c (d) e (f) g (h)
Goals: Your height: 80 (90) 100 (110) 120 (130) 140 (150) cm. Length (MF): approx. 50 (52) 54 (56) 58 (60) 62 (64) cm.
Movement space: This blouse is designed to have a wide range of movement from the upper part  of the yoke downwards. The room for movement is approximately 30-40 cm, depending on your height. When choosing a size, take your own measured excess width as a starting point and let this determine which size you knit.
Guide sticks: Circular needle 5.5 + 6 mm (40 / 60 / 80 cm).
Knit strength: 16 m x 22 rows = 10 x 10 cm in stockinette stitch.
Recommended yarn from Smuksak: 1 thread Shetland Wool (280m/50g) or Reloved Merino (230m/50g) along with 2 threads Silk Mohair (212m/25g). It is knitted in three threads in total.
Consumption:
- 1st thread: 250 (250) 300 (350) 400 (450) 500 (500) g Shetland Wool or Reloved Merino
- 2nd thread: 250 (250) 300 (350) 400 (450) 500 (500) g Silk Mohair.
Workflow: The blouse is knitted in the round from top to bottom in stockinette stitch. The carrier piece is knitted in twisted rib and is shaped longer at the front and back using the German Short Rows technique, to be followed by a hole-patterned frill with a finishing picot edge. Stitches are then picked up for the further support piece and double increases are made to give the blouse its draped effect. The blouse is then knitted straight down in stockinette stitch and finished with an i-cord edging. Finally, the sleeves are knitted straight down in stockinette stitch, and each is finished with a row of holes for ties and the same hole-patterned frill as on the yoke.
