Cloud Blouse is a beautifully light and airy knitting pattern that combines effortless elegance with exceptional comfort. Worked seamlessly from the top down, it features a relaxed silhouette with softly shaped shoulders and a refined funnel neckline, creating a modern and sophisticated look. The blouse is knitted in double strands of silk mohair, resulting in a luxurious, cloud-like fabric that feels incredibly soft while remaining wonderfully lightweight.

Designed with generous positive ease, the Cloud Blouse drapes gracefully on the body and is perfect for year-round wear. Whether styled with jeans for a casual everyday outfit or paired with a skirt for a more polished look, its timeless design makes it a versatile wardrobe staple. The simple stockinette construction and elegant finish have made it a favorite among knitters who appreciate both comfort and understated Scandinavian style.

The Cloud Blouse is designed to have approx. 12-15 cm [4¾-6 inches] of positive ease. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are designed to fit a bust circumference of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm [29½-31½ (31½-33½) 33½-35½ (35½-37½) 37½-39½ (39½-43¼) 43¼-47¼ (47¼-51¼) 51¼-55 (55-59) inches].

The measurements for the finished blouse are listed on the front page of the pattern. Measure yourself before starting your project, to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 90 cm [35½ inches] around your bust (or around the widest part of your upper body) you should knit a size S. A size S blouse has a bust circumference of 102 cm [40¼ inches] which in the given example would give you 12 cm [4¾ inches] of positive ease.

The Cloud Blouse is worked from the top down. First the back yoke is worked flat back and forth while short rows are worked to shape the shoulders. Then, each shoulder is worked separately, back and forth and with short rows. The shoulders are then joined to form the front yoke. The front and back yoke are joined at the underarms to form the body, which is worked in the round on a circular needle. The sleeves are worked from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the armhole openings. The sleeves are worked in the round. At the end, the stockinette stitch funnel neckline is worked from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the neck opening.

Knit a swatch before beginning the project to check if the recommended needle size gives you the correct gauge.
