Rigmors Summer Blouse Junior

This knitting pattern is in Swedish.

Rigmors Sommarblus Junior is knitted in the round from the bottom up on circular needles with raglan decreases. The sleeves are knitted in the round on double-pointed needles. The neckline is shaped using short rows. To achieve a lasting fit around the neck, a thin elastic thread can be sewn along the neckline. The sweater has a feminine and simple lace pattern.

About decreases and increases

Decreases and increases are knitted on either side of a stitch so that they either lean to the right (dec-r and inc-r) or to the left (dec-l and inc-l). Please note that the decreases are knitted differently on the knit and purl sides.
