Our Darjeeling Cardigan has become a sweater; a soft and oversized everyday favorite.
Darjeeling Sweater is knitted from the top down and you can 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 end with a ribbed edge.
Darjeeling Sweater is designed to have a positive ease, meaning the garment's ease is larger than the actual bust measurement.
We recommend using the "guiding bust measurement" as a reference when choosing size. For example, if your bust measures 98 cm, you should knit size 3 to achieve the intended fit.
