A pretty and classic short blouse with a lovely lace pattern. With the wide ribbing at the hip it is perfect to pair with a skirt or a pair of waist high jeans. It is easy to lengthen the blouse - just remember this will require extra yarn.

The Dress Me Up series is worked on size 3.5 mm needles using 1 strand of Silk Mohair. The gauge is 22 sts x 32 rows in the lace pattern. The rib is worked on size 2.5 mm needles.

The pattern measures from 84-112 (finished measurements), and I recommend a positive ease of about 6-8 cm. See measurements and yardage requirements below.

Note that a second size range from 118-160 cm (final measurements) also is available as Dress Me Up Blouse Plus.
