Tanto sweater features a set-in sleeve design with optional variations, including the choice to add side slits. The fabric is made with a modified brioche stitch, while the cuffs and body ribbing use traditional brioche for extra detail. The suggested yarn options make it adaptable for different seasons. Although the sweater is designed with set-in sleeves, knitting a few sizes larger gives it a relaxed, drop-shoulder look. You can create 3 different versions of the sweater, customising the fit to your liking.

Variations:

• 1: original sweater, no side slits.
• 2: with side slits, same length of front and back part.
• 3: side slits, front part is shorter than back part.
