The Ophelya Blouse is a romantic summer blouse with airy puff sleeves made of cashmere and silk.
It is knitted from the bottom up.
The body is knitted with Fonty BB Merinos, first in the round and then flat. The armholes are shaped using decreases. The front and back edges are finished with an I-cord edging, which continues as straps along the sides of the edges. New stitches are then picked up from the straps and armholes using Cardiff Cashmere Brushlight. The shoulders are shaped using short rows. The sleeves are then knitted in stockinette stitch in the round to the elbow, gathered with decreases, and finished with an I-cord edging.
