I designed this sweater for my granddaughter, Jane, who is ALWAYS hot - even in the winter. I thought she might appreciate the lacy sleeves - air can pass through them. It has a square neck, loose 3/4 set-in sleeves and falls at high hip. The bottom edge and neck are edged with a knitted picot edging.

I love Dreambaby yarn for kids’ things, because it goes through the washer and dryer well, but most any DK yarn is fine - just be sure to check your gauge!
