Summer sweater featuring a nice eyelet detail.
The Ingrid Sweater is worked from the top down. The back is knit first, followed by the front shoulders, which are picked up along the shoulder edge and worked top-down while shaping the neckline. The front and back are then joined at the underarms, and the body is knit seamlessly in the round to the hem. Sleeves are subtly shaped through a series of nearly invisible decreases.
The model in the picture is 169 cm / 5 ́7” tall and wears a Size 2.
