“Colour blocking is all the rage this season and this set is designed to help show off your figure, as each style is designed to help flatter your assets. The sleeves are interchangeable with any of the styles and there is also an option for a patterned back.”

This sweater pattern is easy to personalise. It includes three neckline options (round, v-neck and square) and three sleeve lengths (short, 3/4 and long). It also has different options for the colourblocking in order to create the illusion you prefer.
