Peasant Blouse Knitting Pattern Download

Description

Teva’s given cables a folkloric treatment, but in a modern asymmetrical arrangement. MOSS yarn was knit on large needles for gossamer drape; the way the fiber blooms at this gauge makes it exquisitely soft, not quite sheer and still structured enough for a blouse that is truly amazing.
