The Tanto sweater features a beautiful balance of structure and softness. Although the sweater is designed with set-in sleeves, knitting a few sizes larger gives it a relaxed, drop-shoulder look. The fabric is made with a modified brioche stitch, while the cuffs and body ribbing use traditional brioche for extra detail.
