The Basic Bra is a bra with a simple look and a comfortable fit.

The bra is knitted in cashmere wool which ensures that it will not scratch against your naked skin, as well as it is breathable, directs moist away from your body and is soft to wear.

The bra is knitted from the bottom up. The band under the breast is knitted in the round in ribbing, and based on your individual measurements. When the cleavage has been knitted the work is split in two parts and the cups are knitted individually. The only mounting in the entire bra, is the mounting of the straps.

The knitting tension on needle size 2,5 is: 10 x 10 cm = 27 sts / 44 rows.
