The Pamina cardigan has a laid-back silhouette and is worked in a timeless cable-rib pattern.
The boxy body is nicely balanced by the round collar and classic button band all together in a very
simple and atemporal combination of cable and rib pattern stitch.
The saddle shoulders are complemented by the round neck closure, providing harmony in the piece
and a flattering fit with an emphasis on the details. The sleeves are wide, but they are somewhat
shaped with some decreases, becoming narrower at the cuffs.
The cardigan is worked from the top down.
The model in the picture is 169 cm / 5´75” tall and wears a Size 2.
