Donna Sweater Pattern

Made in collaboration with Jane Addams under the name Soft Skills:

Oh, Donna...

This sweater is knit seamlessly from the top down. Short-rows shape the back neck and optionally at the bust. Bust darts add a more room to accommodate breasts. Work fewer short rows for smaller breasts and more rows for larger breasts.

Please note that this is a digital pattern and will fulfill automatically when you check out.

Our clothing items are preorders and ship once they are done being sewn, which can take up to three months. We ship from our office in Berlin, Germany via Ascendia, who partners with local post offices like Canada Post, USPS, Royal Mail, etc. Free, tracked international shipping comes standard with all orders! Ascendia can be a bit slow crossing to other countries, so if you'd prefer the faster DHL option, you can elect to pay for it.

Because our items are made to order, we cannot accommodate refunds, but we can accept unworn, unwashed items for store credit, as long as we are contacted and the item is posted back to us within 15 days of the delivery date. Past the return? Check out our awesome resale site!
