EK708 Laguna Blouse
WEB EXCLUSIVE

"A breezy cap-sleeved top for summer, the Laguna Blouse has gathered shoulders for added interest," says Dempsey. "Knit at 4.5 or 3.5 sts. to the inch. Finished 36 (39, 42, 45, 48, 51, 54)" at bust." Dempsey astounds us. She can take the simplest silhouette and make it look vital, essential, with just a couple of details. In this case, she builds out the sleeves from the body with increases, then gathers them together, and ends with a 3-needle bind-off at the shoulders. And just a few rows of rev st st add real distinction at neck and hem. And then there are only side seams to sew with mattress stitch, and that's it. And you can wear it everywhere and look perfect (we Canadians would wear it over other things in the winter).
