Construction
The entire blouse is worked in 2 strands of yarn, top down in raglan shaping. The neckline is identical on back and front whilst the increasing/yarn over’s form a slim line of holes on each side of the marked sts. Note, size 2XL and 3XL: At the bottom section of the raglan increases, increases are made only on the body. This means there will be only one hole along the raglan increases.
Size guide
Luma Tee is intended to have a positive ease of approx. 8-16 cm [3-6”], depending on how loosely fitting you want it to be. The blouse is shown with a positive ease of 16 cm [6“].
Find your personal bust circumference by measuring around your chest (or the widest part of your upper body). Then look at the measurements given at the beginning of the pattern (these are the finished measurements of the blouse). Positive ease is the difference between your personal measurement and the blouse measurement. For example, if your bust circumference is 94 cm [37”], a size M would provide you with a positive ease of 8 cm [3”] (102 cm – 94 cm = 8 cm). [40” - 37” = 3”].
