Warm. Sensible. Practical. Feminine. With faux Faroese shaping giving it extra, shawl-like length in the back and ensuring a good fit around the shoulders, this piece is perfect for layering! Throw it on for a little extra warmth whether you’re taking the dog to the park, or knitting by firelight.



Size: S/L (M/XL) - to fit bust 32”-40” (38”-46”)

Finished measurements: 54” (60”) circumference, 14” (15”) front, 18” (19”) back

I designed this to be knit at a looser than usual gauge for a little more drape in the finished piece.

As you can see from the sizing, there is a lot of leeway in the fit of this piece. It is meant to be worn with a bit of positive ease for a swingy, comfy feel. It’s shown in the M/XL size on a 38” and 44” bust.

The top down construction means that this piece is easily lengthened. Add inches for a more dramatic look!
