Our Darjeeling Cardigan has become a sweater; a soft and oversized everyday favorite.
The Darjeeling Sweater is knitted top-down, allowing you to easily adjust the length as desired.
The front pieces are knitted separately with an elegant V-neckline, stitches are then picked up along the shoulder and the back piece is knitted. Finally, the front and back pieces are joined and the body is knitted in the round. Stitches are picked up around the armholes and the sleeves are shaped with short rows. Both sleeves and body are finished with a ribbed edge.
The Darjeeling Sweater is designed to have a positive ease, meaning it has a larger movement ease than your actual bust measurement. We recommend using the "guideline bust measurement" as a reference when choosing your size. For example, if your bust measures 98 cm, you should knit size 3 to achieve the intended fit.
