Glitter blouse is a cute and feminine sweater knitted in the lovely yarns Tilia and Paia. Paia gives the sweater its beautiful glitter effect. The sweater is knitted from the top down, and starts with the yoke which is knitted back and forth before the work is gathered and from here it is knitted in the round. It has cute puff sleeves and ends with a playful flounce at the bottom. Finally, stitches are picked up to form an i-cord cord which is knitted together with the neckline using i-cord bind-off, which is also repeated on the sleeve and body. The result is both a decorative and comfortable sweater with an extra sparkling touch! The sweater is every woman's dream with puff sleeves, glitter and glamor.
Yarn options
Feel free to knit the sweater in another yarn, such as double Tynn silk mohair. Or replace Paia with Sunday or Tynn Line from Sandnes Garn, or go for a yarn with sequins like Kul tråd from Strikkefeber. Line from Sandnes Garn is also a nice alternative if you only want to knit it in one thread. There are many possibilities, but feel free to knit a sample before you start, to check that the knitting tension is correct. Note that the knitting tension is stated after the sweater has been rinsed. If you knit in Paia, it may be a good idea to attach threads continuously.

This means that if you measure approx. 93 cm around the chest, you should knit a size S. Measure yourself before you start knitting.
