Frankie Blouse - Woman Petite Knit
The Frankie Blouse is worked from the top down with raglan increases shaping the yoke. Short rows are worked along the back of the neck to create a comfortable, well-fitting neckline.
The body is worked in the round, and the sleeves are knitted in the round using double-pointed needles or the Magic Loop technique. The design features narrow stripes and a light, softly structured fabric.
This is a close-fitting blouse with minimal ease, making it ideal as a layering piece or worn on its own. Size Guide
The Frankie Blouse is designed with 0–5 cm of positive ease, giving a neat, gently fitted silhouette.
