Elsa

There’s a quiet kind of comfort in stitches that flow with ease. I feel happy with the soft whisper of wool gliding over my needles and joyful as, part after part, a new sweater takes shape. With its understated funnel neck, roomy shape, and thoughtful details, the *Elsa* sweater is soothing to make, effortless to wear, and endlessly adaptable. **SIZES** 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9) Recommended ease: 6–8" / 15–20 cm of positive ease. ***Finished measurements*** Bust circumference: 36.5 (40, 44.5, 48, 52) (56, 60, 64, 68)" / 92 (100, 112, 120, 132) (140, 152, 160, 172) cm.
