Nuage is an everyday top-down sweater with slightly puffed sleeves. A zigzag lace detail travels down the sleeves and the optional light ruffled collar and sleeve cuffs add a playful touch to the design. Pair Nuage with wide-leg jeans, a skirt or slip it over a dress.

Nuage was initially published in Laine Magazine Issue 16 and is now being published as an individual pattern.
