DETAILS
This is a fun seamless knit worked top down and in the round with simple travelling stitches. The motifs are designed to look like reflections on the water getting larger as they are worked through the shoulder and chest.

Meant to be an oversized but still elegant fit with stylish long straight sleeves. For my second version, I made the sleeves a bit longer and enjoy them cuffed for extra coziness.

GAUGE
18 sts & 24 rows for 4”/10 cm in stockinette (my needle size was US8/5.0mm needles).

FIT & SIZE
This garment is to be made to be oversized and to be super comfortable. For this I would suggest an ease of 6 to +12” or 15 to +30 cm of your bust size or whatever you are most comfortable wearing.

To fit the following finished bust measurements with 6-12” or 15 - 30 cm of positive ease. 38 (42, 46, 50, 54, 58, 62, 66)” or 96.5 (106.5, 117, 127, 137, 147.5, 157.5, 168) cm.

Samples both shown in size 3.

YARN
Required approx 1005 (1110, 1220, 1325, 1430, 1535, 1640, 1745) yards or 920 (1015, 1115, 1210, 1310, 1405, 1500, 1600) meters (double quantities if you are holding two yarns as I have done for both of my versions).

Version 2 (white Glimmerview) uses Cashmere People Yarns Cashgora Sport color Pamirs (100% Goat – Cashgora), held double with Shibui Knits Silk Cloud color Ivory (60% Goat – Mohair, 40% Silk).
