NOTES ABOUT DESIGN

The Porto Sweater is the perfect design for transition into Fall. Is lightweight and with a beautiful drape and is easy to wear.
The sweater is worked in 4 panels, assembled at the end. The rows are worked vertically in double slip stitches to recreate the knitting look of the fisherman ribbing.

This Porto Sweater has a closer fit, with a positive ease of only 6 cm around Bust Circumference.
