Nature Lace Sweater is an oversized sweater knitted in lace pattern with a high collar and wide ribbed edges.
The lace pattern makes the sweater feminine and elegant while the wide ribbed edges and the sweater’s “chunkiness” give it a coarser expression. The sweater is knitted top-down. First, the front and back pieces are knitted back and forth, then the body and sleeves are knitted in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up for the collar, which is knitted in the round.
Nature Lace Sweater is designed to have a positive ease, meaning the finished garment’s bust measurement is larger than the wearer’s own 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 2 to achieve the intended fit.
