This drop shoulder sweater is one of my absolute favorite additions to my handmade wardrobe! I designed it with the intention of creating something special — a sweater for everybody. The style is simple, modern, and elegant, and it’s available in a wide range of sizes (from 37 to 70 inches in bust circumference!). A truly size-inclusive piece to be worn with confidence and pride. No matter your body type, it’s perfect for the office, for lounging at home, or even for a weekend hike in the woods.

Hearts Like Ours is a relaxed-fit sweater featuring a wide body and slim sleeves. Knit in a medium-weight yarn, it has a flattering drape and a stylish silhouette.

This design is ideal for those beautiful yarns — like alpaca, linen, cotton, or silk (whether pure or blended) — that don’t always pair well with seamless construction. It also works wonderfully with a variety of yarn weights. Even a fingering-weight yarn can create a lovely, lightweight fabric at this gauge.
