The Musling Bra is an elegant and simple knitted bra, inspired by the ocean’s clean lines and treasures. It is knitted from the side, starting with the band under the arm and working around to the back, creating a beautiful and functional shape. The cups are shaped with increases and decreases, and adjustable i-cord straps are added for both aesthetics and comfort. The design is tailored to individual measurements to ensure the best possible fit.

About sizing

The amount of yarn above is for sizes (XS) S (M) L (XL) XXL (XXXL). However, the bra is knit according to your own measurements, so it is better to purchase one more skein too much rather than one too little, since the yarn amount can vary according to band length, strap length and breast size.

The following table is therefore an estimate of the amount of yarn needed: 25g (50g) 50g (75g) 75g (100g) 100g
Meterage: 112m/25g
