Sweater No. 26

Sweater No. 26 is a short, oversize sweater with defined saddle shoulders, which add character and catch the eye. The yoke is shaped by working short rows, which ensure a good fit. The sleeves, shaped using the contiguous method, are wide at the armhole and narrow in at the wrist. The neat neckline and twisted rib edges add a feminine contrast to an otherwise masculine impression.
