Nigrum Sweater PDF english version
Composition
Nigrum Sweater is a short and feminine sweater with a wide neckline and sleeves with a discrete balloon effect.
The sweater is knit top down, so you can easily adjust the length at both the body and sleeves while knitting. By knitting short rows, the neckline is slightly higher at the back.
This sweater is supposed to be worn with approx. 5- 10 cm positive ease. If your bust measurement is 84 cm, you should choose a size XS.
