PATTERN | LUCILA SHIRT

The LUCILA shirt is worked seamlessly bottom up. Start knitting at the hemline and work in rounds until you reach the armholes. Front and back are then finished flat. Stitches for the short sleeves are later picked up from the armhole edges. Small nubs at the sleeves add a nostalgic touch to the shirt. The sizes correspond to the bust circumference as follows: XS (S; M; L; XL; XXL; XXXL) = 29 (32; 35; 39; 42; 47; 52)” / 74 (82; 90; 98; 107; 119; 131) cm bust circumference (measured at the body). The shirt has a relaxed fit and should be worn with some positive ease. Example: If your bust circumference is 35” (90 cm), choose size M for an initial positive ease 0.8” (2 cm) – since the fabric knitted with Cumbria widens slightly when worn, you end up with a positive ease of 1.6 – 2.4” (4 – 6 cm).
