Hopewell Tunic features a flaring hemline and flutter sleeves. This slightly oversized tunic has a top down raglan construction and is knit in the round. This tunic will become a wardrobe staple as it is super comfortable and easy to style over leggings or fitted jeans. The yoke is completed with simple short row shaping and there is an optional dropped hem. The flutter sleeves are completed with simple short row shaping and finished with a contrasting color. Hopewell is super cozy with a comfort fit and easy to layer over a slip or a long sleeve tee. The design is easy to customize and add your own creative touches such as a ruffle, or an embroidered or lace border.
