Antiquity Blouse

• Finished the lace repeat in the front panel, total row 72 and the next row begins at 73
• The pattern is not very clear on the yoke. Even I read them ahead, unfortunately it did not prevent mistakes. At the beginning it skips the instruction of the first section before the front panel, so I had to guess, and I continued to guess afterwards, but of course I missed the shaping that are supposed to be happened at the same time. I’ll need to frog few rows back and will also draw the structure to make sure I understand.
• Overall I found the clarity of this pattern is really poor. I had a hard time reading and understanding the body because the way it wrote did not follow the usual sequence knitters would do. I have a feeling that this pattern only focuses on the front panel and pays little attention to other part. Definitely not a pattern for beginners.
