PATTERN | DENA SHIRT

DENA is a relaxed ease, cropped shirt with eyelet pattern. It is worked in rounds seamlessly from top to bottom.The top is started at the neck with a narrow ribbed edge, then knitting continues with a simple eyelet pattern, gradually increasing the width over the rounds for the yoke. Then the sleeves and body are separated and continued one after the other. The body as well as the short sleeves end with a narrow border in moss stitch pattern.

The sizes correspond to bust circumference as follows: XS (S; M; L; XL; XXL)= 29 (32; 35; 39; 42; 47)“ / 74 (82; 90; 98; 107; 119) cm) bust circumference (measured at the body). The shirt is cut short and wide. Example: If you have a bust measurement of 35” (90 cm), then knit the shirt in size M and it will fit loosely with a positive ease of 3.1“ (8 cm).
