This top is a perfect addition to your Spring and Fall wardrobes; the lightweight material and dropped stitch details allow air to flow freely while the wool content of the yarn will make sure this light layer fends off the chill. The interesting construction allows the knitting to surprise you at various points, making its grand reveal later in the process rather than sooner. With an easy shape and loose fit, the top is meant to be worn with a few inches of positive ease and will flatter a variety of body shapes and sizes.
