Blouse Shaya by Pascuali Designs

Craft: Knitting

The feminine SHAYA blouse is worked seamlessly top down. Increases for the shoulders are made along four raglan lines, with extra increases for voluminous three quarter length statement sleeves. Hem and cuffs are worked in broad elastic ribbings.

The blouse has a loose fit. The tight-fitting cuff sits at elbow level and puffs up the sleeve. Example: If your bust circumference is 32” (82 cm), choose size S for a positive ease of 2.4” (6 cm).
