MARGOT (EN)

Description

DESCRIPTION
In this seamless raglan design, MARGOT is knit from the top-down, in-the-round and almost entirely in stockinette stitch. A simple cable underlines the sides of the garment as well as the sleeves. The neckband and the wrists are finished with a picot edge and the hem is knit in twisted 1/1 rib.
MARGOT is a basic sweater with sophisticated finishes that you will enjoy wearing all year long as it can be knit with almost any kind of fingering weight yarn.
