Anker's blouse is knitted from the top down. The support piece consists of rib segments with cutouts followed by rounds of classic raglan cutouts. The carrier piece is first knitted back and forth on the circular needle, so that a slit is formed in the neck. Then knit in the round on the circular needle. The sleeves are knitted on double pointed needles or with the Magic Loop technique. The body and sleeves are finished with a bent edge or a ribbed edge – the latter will give a less feminine look.
