CHATON is a very feminine sweater with a small flower pattern reminiscent of the little « chaton » that line the dunes of our beaches and balloon sleeves, tightened by a long cuff of twisted ribs. It is knitted from bottom up seamlessly.

The body is knitted in one piece up to the armholes. Then each part (front and back) is knitted separately and connected with a shoulder bind-off. The sleeves are picked up and knitted in the round. The neckline is picked up.
