Utu Cardigan

The Utu Cardigan may be simple on purpose, but it doesn’t compromise on style: the yarn is supercool light and airy brushed alpaca, the body is a bit cropped and relaxed, when the super long sleeves and wide cuffs can shine and make the cardigan as the ultimate fashion piece right now. If you don’t want long sleeves, simply roll them up or knit shorter ones and wear the cardigan with high waist jeans or a dress.

The cardigan is designed to be worn with approx. 10-20 cm / 4-8” of positive ease at bust for a relaxed look. The waistline ribbing is tighter than the bust, but it loosens with wear. First, measure your own bust (or your widest upper body part). Then, add 10-20 cm / 4-8” to your bust circumference. Compare that number to the finished measurements (above) and choose the closest size. You can also measure your favourite cardigan.
