    ANT SWEATER is a chunky, cropped sweater with three-quarter-length sleeves. “Kant” means ‘edge’ in Danish and refers to the edges and colour block look that this design enhances. 

    The sweater is knit top-down with increases down the front, back, and on top of the shoulders and short rows are then used to shape the body and sleeves.

    KANT is a fast knitting project on large needles with minimal finishing. The mix of Merino and Alpaca makes the sweater very soft and gives it a bit of drape.
