Yarn Choice
The blouse is knitted with two types of yarn1. Solid main color:– Fingering weight yarn (approx. 400–460 m / 437–503 yds per 100 g)2. Gradient yarn for stripes and yoke– Lace or light fingering weight yarn (approx. 380–400 m / 415–437 yds per 100 g)The most important thing is that the gauge matches.
