The Ribbed Hipsters are our very first hipsters.

They are created with a wish to give you a soft and warm feeling of comfort. This comfort is underlined by the fact that The Ribbed Hipsters are knitted based on your own measurements.

The Ribbed Hipsters have the characteristic 3/2 rib knit pattern, just like The Ribbed Bra, that follows the shape of your body. This also gives a beautiful, visual effect.

The Ribbed Hipsters are knitted from the top down. The Ribbed Hipsters are knitted in the round across your waist and hip area while simultaneously knitting increases on each side. Following this, the sts for the back piece are places to rest while the front piece is knitted back and forth. To finish, the back piece is knitted separately, back and forth, until the front and back piece have a suitable length and meet between the legs.

Yarn
The estimated amount of yarn is indicated based on the panty sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (XXL) XXXL.

The amount of yarn is also dependent on how high you want the hipsters to sit on your hips. That’s why the amount of yarn is written with a reservation for fluctuation. Our recommendation will always be that it’s better to buy one skein of yarn too much, rather than one too little. That way, you can make sure the color of the yarn is from the same batch. Most places will allow you to return unopened skeins.
