Cardigan No. 11
Cardigan No. 11 s a boxy cardigan with a slightly oversized fit.
Double-knitted button bands and a double-folded neck edge give the cardigan a refined, luxurious expression, while a few carefully designed details create definition and at the same time ensure a good fit.
Cardigan is worked seamlessly from the top down.

Size guide
Cardigan No. 11 has an oversized fit. The smaller sizes have more positive ease than the larger sizes, to best suit each body shape. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 35-40 cm 13.75-15.75 inches for sizes XS-XL and 20-25 cm 8-10 inches for sizes 2XL-4XL.
Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) are equivalent to European standard sizes and suit a bust circumference of approx. 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) cm 31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37.5 (37.5-39.5) 39.5-43.25 (43.25-47.25) 47.25-51.25 (51.25-55) inches.
In example: You measure 88 cm 34.75 inches at your bust + 35-40 cm 13.75-15.75 inches = 123-128 cm 48.5-50.5 inches. Meaning you would choose a size S with a finished circumference of 126 cm 49.5 inches
The model is wearing size S.
