The art of breathing, something we rarely really pay attention to, is so much like letting go. It’s something truly free. Let these lines guide you into that lovely and relaxed breathing space, keeping you grounded while your piece keeps growing, row after row and stripe after stripe. Find the quiet piece of movement with this little garment.
The sweater is worked from top down with raglan yoke and the asymmetric shaping makes it a very stylish and at the same time very easy to wear.
