The Nora Sweater is an oversized sweater with irregular ribbing throughout the body. It features a clean boat neckline, wide sleeves and rolled edges that add a subtle, effortless detail.
The sweater is worked the top-down in the round, starting at the neckline with a saddle shoulder construction. Increases shape the shoulders before the work is divided into front and back, which are later joined to continue the body in the round. German Short Rows are used to lower the front neckline and improve the fit. The sleeves are worked in the round with minimal shaping for a relaxed fit.

Il Nora Sweater è un maglione oversize caratterizzato da coste irregolari lungo tutto il corpo. Presenta uno scollo a barchetta, maniche ampie e bordi arrotolati.
Il maglione è lavorato dall’alto verso il basso, iniziando dallo scollo con una costruzione saddle shoulder. Gli aumenti modellano le spalle prima di dividere il lavoro in davanti e dietro, che vengono successivamente uniti per il corpo. I German Short Rows vengono utilizzati per abbassare leggermente lo scollo sul davanti. Le maniche sono lavorate in tondo con diminuzioni minime, così da mantenere una vestibilità ampia e rilassata.
