NB! Cashmere feels delicate and soft against the skin. We therefore strongly urge you to follow the suggestion and use the yarn listed above. We can’t guarantee that the bra won’t feel itchy if you use a different kind of wool than the yarns suggested in this pattern.

The tension in this pattern doesn’t correspond with the tension in the yarn listed above. The reason for this, is that we want to create the best support possible for your bust, which means that the tension in our pattern is higher and the knit tighter. The cups are knitted on a 3 mm needle, while the rib is knitted on a 2,5 mm needle with a tension corresponding to 10 cm = 28 sts.
