Fingering-weight yarn knit at a relaxed gauge produces a lightweight pullover with beautiful drape. Simple eyelet insets in the front and back dress it up just a bit. Knit with slight A-line shaping from the top down in one go. Modified raglan shaping gives a more flattering fit through the shoulders. For best fit, choose a size that gives you zero or slight negative ease at the bust.

Skills required:
• Long-tail cast-on
• Backwards-loop cast-on
• Increasing
• Decreasing
• Simple lace

None of the techniques used are difficult, but there is quite a bit going on at the start with different increase rates and the eyelet panels. Check out the pattern thread in my group if you need any help!
