Grown-up Hira
Introducing the Hira Cardigan: a light and breezy layering piece perfect for those cool summer evenings. This versatile cardigan can be elegantly draped over a pretty evening dress for a sophisticated look, or dressed down by pairing it with your favorite jeans and a casual tee. The beautiful beads adorning the collar and sleeves elevate this simple cardigan, transforming it into a stunning option for special occasions, making it an essential addition to your wardrobe.
Crafted with care, the Hira Cardigan is designed to be knit from the top down, featuring stylish raglan sleeves that ensure a comfortable fit. Once you reach the body-sleeve split, the body is worked flat, incorporating thoughtful waist shaping for a flattering silhouette. The sleeves are expertly knit in the round, providing a seamless finish. For the collar, stitches are picked up and worked flat to create a double-width design with a charming garter ridge. This stylish collar is then folded and securely sewn in place—rest assured, the sewing is done on the inside so it remains invisible to onlookers.
For a delightful twist, the Grown-Up Hira is the women's version of the original Hira cardigan, enabling you to create a lovely mother-daughter cardigan set for coordinated looks. Imagine matching with your little one in this fashionable ensemble!
Available in a variety of finished chest sizes ranging from 34, 36, 38.5, 40, 42, 44, 48, to 52 inches, the Hira Cardigan is intended to be worn with no ease or with just 1 inch of positive ease. In the stunning images, you'll notice our model showcases the cardigan with a 36-inch bust, highlighting how beautifully this design complements various body types.
