Color Square Blouse is an oversized blouse with three-quarter-length sleeves and an exciting square pattern in intarsia knit. It is knitted in Fluffy Alpaca Mix and is really soft and light as a cloud. The blouse is knitted from the top down. First, the back and sleeves are knitted in one piece with short rows to shape the shoulders, and with binding off sleeve stitches until only the body stitches remain, then it is knitted straight down and finished with a garter stitch edge. Stitches are then picked up first at one sleeve and then the other. The sleeves are joined with neck decreases in the center front and are then knitted as on the back. Finally, the side and sleeve seams are sewn, and a neck edge is knitted in purl stitches.

Also available as a KIT.
