Ms. Eva Cardigan
The Ms. Eva Cardigan is the grown up companion piece to the Miss Eva child’s sweater and it shares the things that made the original a fun knit: top down seamless construction, unique detailing, and zero finishing. This version is an easy to wear cardigan with a gathered bodice and an A-line silhouette.
Sizes: to fit an upper torso circumference of 30 (32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46)” 76 (81, 86.5, 91.5, 96.5, 101.5, 106.5, 112, 117) cm. Choose the size closest to actual upper torso measurement (a snug measurement under the arms and above the bust, NOT full bust measurement). A range of full bust measurements are accommodated in each size, so choosing according to upper torso measurement assures the best fit at the shoulders (see the schematic for the measurement across the shoulders).
