Simply Summer Blouse
Simply Summer Blouse is a cropped, loose summer blouse with a boat neck.
Throw it on over a summer dress or wear it with a high-waisted skirt.
The thin yarn and medium-sized needles create a light and airy blouse, perfect for warm weather.
Knit from the top down in stockinette stitch with raglan increases and I-cord edges.
The blouse is easy to knit and a good fit for a first time knitter.

The Simply Summer Blouse is worked top down with raglan increases to shape the yoke. The sleeves are knitted in the round on double-pointed needles. The body and sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch and finished with an I-cord edge. Finally, stitches are picked up around the neckline and bound off to create an I-cord edge here as well.
The lose knit is held togheter by the i-cord edges, making sure the garments keeps it shape when worn.
