Designed with fit being the main focus, yet it’s not a coincidence that Masetro is a gorgeous jaw-dropper. Every detail is intentional and every feature fully thought-through, ensuring you have the best-fitting sweater that looks so stylish and gets you so much compliments.

CONSTRUCTION
Maestro is started flat for a front neck drop to ensure comfortable fit before being joined and worked in the round until completion. The garment imitates a set-in sleeve style but is worked in one piece. The pockets are crocheted simultaneously with the body as well.
