Certain sweaters have been in my mind for years before I finally design them. This sweater in particular was one I always knew I wanted to make. The airy lace stitches, relaxed silhouette, and visible shoulder seams are so effortlessly fashionable.

This sweater is worked in the round from the bottom, up. You will separate to work front and back flat and then join at the shoulders. Sleeves will be worked by picking up stitches around the arm opening and knitting flat.
