Pilvi is a relaxed but elegant blouse. Its high double-knitted neckline gives it structure and a crisp look despite the generous amount of positive ease. The blouse features drop shoulders, an open back, and voluminous sleeves.

  • WORKFLOW

    Worked top-down flat, starting with the back with a drop shoulder construction, where the stitches are picked up for the front. After the body, the neckline is worked in double-knitting with both yarns. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up and finished with an i-cord edge.

    The optional finishing touch is the double-layered satin bow, hand-sewn using running and ladder stitches.
