The Lines Sweater is a chunky and slightly oversized raglan sweater worked from top to bottom in one piece. It features a simple geometric line pattern that is worked by using cables. The collar is knit as a double collar and the body is finished with a split hem. The ribbings on body and sleeves are finished with a tubular bind off.

This sweater is designed to be worn with approx. 10-20 cm / 4-9” of positive ease.
If you’re in between sizes, I recommend choosing the smaller size. If you’d like a tighter fitting garment, choose a size with less positive ease to your actual bust circumference.
Example: If your bust measures 95 cm / 35.5”, please choose size C with a finished garment circumference of 119.5 cm / 47”.*
