This sweater has a fantastic fit - it flows around the body and seems to have a precise shaping. The truth is - there is almost no shaping at all. The fit is created by the garter stitch and the sideways construction.

The sweater is knit in one piece with just two seams and no other intricate finishing. That’s good news to all knitters who are not particularly fond of seaming :-)

Aside from making those two seams, this project is unbelievably simple - only plain knit stitches with a few increases and decreases required for the neckline. And even those simple techniques are explained in the video tutorials that accompany the pattern.

Another significant advantage of this design is that it is incredibly versatile. It looks equally well with casual jeans and a classic pencil skirt, with high heels and heavy boots, in an office environment and at a camping site.

It is so comfortable that you can wear it when you ski, skate, bike or engage in any other kind of sports.

The sample sweater featured in the photos is made with bamboo yarn. This yarn, as well as any other yarn with a beautiful drape (rayon, modal, silk), enhances the drape of the sweater.

The pattern provides instructions for 18 sizes:

five regular sizes - to fit bust 88 (92, 96, 100, 104) cm / 34.5 (36.25, 37.75, 39.25, 41)”,

Happy knitting :-)
