Bolero with oversized fit. Keeps your back and shoulders warm in a beautiful way.

The bolero is a one-piece-knit. Knit a square, sew a few inches each side and voila! - you have a bolero.

Width (bolero):
(77) 83 (88) 99 (110) cm / (30.5”) 32.5” (34.5”) 39” (43.5”)

How to choose correct size:
Hold your arms straight to the sides and measure from elbow to elbow (measure is taken from frontside of body. Get somebody to help you on this part or do the measure from mid chest to elbow, times 2). This measure equals the width of the bolero. If you are in between sizes, pick the larger size (e.g. measure from elbow to elbow is 33.2” - choose size M).
