Hilda

There’s something irresistible about a layer that transforms an outfit in an instant. *Hilda* is my go-to for that extra touch of texture and style — cropped and modern with bold cables that make it anything but basic. Whether I wear it over a shirt for a smart edge or layer it with a breezy summer dress, this slipover is truly a must-knit. The rhythm of cables keeps me engaged, and the chunky yarn means it flies off the needles quickly. **SIZES** 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9) Recommended ease: 2–4" / 5–10 cm of positive ease. ***Finished measurements*** Bust circumference: 32 (36, 40, 44, 48) (52, 56, 60, 64)" / 80 (90, 100, 110, 120) (130, 140, 150, 160) cm.
