The Forest Hood - Dansk
The Forest Hood - Dansk
The Forest Hood er en strikket hætte og poncho i ét, hvilket både er praktisk, varmt og yderst behageligt. The Forest Hood strikkes fra toppen af hovedet og nedefter.
Den åbne hætte strikkes først frem og tilbage - med en i-cord-kant i ansigt-åbningen. Når hætten samles, strikkes halsstykket rundt med indtagninger, for at samle hætten ved halsen. Herefter laves udtagningerne, som danner fine stråler ned mod skuldrene, og til sidst strikkes ponchoen rundt til den dækker og varmer præcis så meget af din overkrop, som du ønsker.
The Forest Hood kan bruges både som klassisk elefanthue og som en sjælevarmer med en hætte hvilende på ryggen til koldere tider.

Frequently asked questions
How does the individual sizing work?
This differs from pattern to pattern, but oftentimes we ask you to measure underneath your bust and across your bust. Then we offer a calculation based on the knitting tension and this in turn tells you e.g. how many stitches you should cast on for your band.
Other times, it’s measuring the cups to your body and stopping when you feel they give the coverage you prefer. For some of our patterns we have created an Excel sheet where you simply type in your measurements and it provides you with the amount of stitches, cast-ons ect. Going forward we will optimise this and add it to more patterns.
Can I knit in other types of yarn than cashmere?
Of course you can!
We recommend cashmere because while researching many different yarn types, cashmere was the yarn that was the softest against the skin for the longest duration of time. Also cashmere on small needles tends to give a more tight knitted, elegant look, that we feel are perfect for our designs.But as long as you match the knitting tension to whatever yarn you are using, you can use whatever yarn you want.
How much support do your bras give?
The bras give the same support as a soft, wireless bra. However there are no strap adjustments in the patterns yet, so we generally recommend you knit the straps 5-10 cm shorter than you normally would, so they can ease.
I have a bigger bust, will your bras work for me?
Our bras are meant as a soft, wireless alternative to regular bras. If you need more support for your bust than a soft bra can give you, we suggest you wear a regular bra underneath your nakedknit bra.
