NIGHTINGALE

This is a very special type of knit: Brioche in two types of yarn.

This blouse is worked top down. If your measurements are between two sizes, we recommend that you choose the smaller one. The blouse is designed to have a close fit. If you prefer a looser-fitting model, the Crazy Cousin model is recommended. The blouse will not have a good fit if it is knitted too large.

You can adjust the length according to your own preferences. We begin by knitting the neckline all the way around.
