This purpose driven design focuses on fit and your unique and beautiful proportions, with the options to follow either pre-defined written instructions for 23 sizes (at 2” increments from 28” to 72” bust circumference) or to use a simple formula to make the sweater to your exact measurements and proportions.

This is a fitted sweater with 5cm / 2” of positive ease built into each size.

The sweater is worked in the round from the top down, using an interesting combination of round yoke, straight, and raglan construction techniques in order to achieve a fit unique to your proportions.

This sweater is a blank canvas for you to style and modify to your hearts desire - I have knit two samples:

  • one is a light weight woollen long sleeve in Filcolana Saga and Isager Highland;
  • one is a drapey alpaca tee shirt version with crochet edge finishings.
