Shade:Lilly Pilly
Size:

The Elisabeth Blouse is designed by PetiteKnit. Please note that the kit does not include the pattern. You can purchase the pattern via Ravelry or petiteknit.com.

The Elisabeth Blouse is worked from the top down, starting with a stockinette collar with the right side facing out. The first yoke section is knitted back and forth with raglan increases, then stitches are picked up along the edges for double-knitted front edges. The yoke is joined in the round and finished, with short rows shaping the neckline for a smooth, comfortable fit.

Madeleine was drawn to the Elisabeth Blouse for its elegant collar and double knit v-neckline, both offering enjoyable techniques to try. Sporty and versatile, it's a wardrobe essential! The smooth stockinette in Fruity Knitting Sport beautifully showcases the yarn’s subtle flecks of color.

Yarn Characteristics

Weight: Sport: 150m per 50g /164yds per 50g

Blend: 90% Falklands Corriedale / 10% Mulberry Silk

Falklands Corriedale: This fibre has a good long staple length, is smooth with a hint of lustre and oodles of bounce. The breed is derived from a cross of the Merino sheep and Lincoln Longwool.

Mulberry Silk: This fibre is produced by the Bombyx silk moth. It has the lowest micron count of any natural fibre making it incredibly soft and extremely lustrous. When added to a blend it gives the fibre a phenomenal drape, durability and shine.

Care instructions

Our yarns are steamed after being spun. This makes them bloom. Once your knitted piece is finished, we do recommend wet blocking the piece to the given dimensions. This will set all your stitches and guarantee that your garment looks its best.

Hand-wash only.
