Renée Cardigan
Renée is an elegant cardigan, with fine details. She is knitted with 3 strands of silk mohair. It is a slightly centered, shorter model, with puffy sleeves. The raglan detail continues on the sides of the body and on the inside of the sleeves. The cardigan is knitted seamlessly from top to bottom.
The pattern seems more difficult than it really is.
Once you’ve mastered the stitches, it will progress very smoothly :)

The Renée Cardigan is an oversized sweater with a positive ease of about 18 cm compared to your bust circumference, but as it is a centered model, it is more narrow around the hips. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (XXL) correspond to a bust circumference of approx. 75 (85) 95 (105) 115 (125) cm respectively. Keep in mind that the final measurements of the sweater already take these extra 18 cm into account.
