The Meridian is a seamless, top-down sweater designed with a focus on classic tailoring and clean lines. It features a European shoulder and short-row-shaped, set-in sleeves to achieve a comfortable, precise fit through the shoulders and arms.

The highlight of the garment is the subtle, grid-like ribbing across the upper body, which creates a unique modern texture before transitioning into simple stockinette. Intentional structural details are integrated throughout, such as faux seams worked down the sides of the body and underarms for added stability. The hem and cuffs are finished with 2×1 ribbing and a clean I-cord bind-off.
