This sweater features an unusual construction and an oversize lace pattern. It is a fast knit using the yarn held double.

Pieces are knit flat, then seamed together. The collar is picked up and knit last. Bigger needles are used for the body, the smaller needles are only used for the collar.

It is available in sizes 32 (36, 40, 44, 48). The sweater is meant to be worn with negative ease and is very stretchy. I recommend knitting a size smaller than your actual bust measurements.

2 skeins of Caron One Pound are more than enough for all sizes. If substituting yarns, you will need approximately 910(1035, 1160, 1280, 1405) yards or 832(497, 1061, 1170, 1285) meters.
