PetiteKnit Bea Blouse Knit Kit
PetiteKnit Bea Blouse Knit Kit
Knit PetiteKnit's elegant Bea Blouse in Naturally Pacific Lace, a luxurious blend of 76% Super Kid Mohair and 24% silk.
The Bea Blouse is worked seamlessly from the top down with a boat neck. Two strands of Pacific Lace are held together throughout, creating an exceptionally light blouse with a soft halo, beautiful drape and subtle silk sheen.
Construction
German short rows raise the back neck before sleeve and raglan increases shape the yoke. The body is worked in the round in stocking stitch, followed by the sleeves.
Choose your size
The Bea Blouse is designed with approximately 2 cm of negative ease. Measure around the fullest part of your bust and choose the size intended for that measurement.
