Breaking Free is worked with 1 strand Tilia and 1 strand Saga in the round from top to bottom on circular needles. Increases are made evenly throughout the yoke.
When the yoke and all increases are made, the work is divided for the body and sleeves, and each piece is worked separately.
The hems are folded and knit to the wrong side or sewn together with loose whip stitches, if preferred.
Finally, a long i-cord is made, which is sewn to the body according to the sketch with loose stitches.

Breaking Free symbolizes the ties, norms and standards women have been subject to for centuries.
Wear Breaking Free and invite conversation about equality and women’s lives.
