This sweater has an interesting all-over pattern and a body-skimming fit that smoothes curves.  The ribbing builds in a waist and the V neck is just the ticket for boob flattery.  Don’t be tempted to knit it larger than your body measurements… you’ll just be knitting extra fabric that will hang there limply wondering "why did you create me if I serve no purpose?"  Knit it to fit.  This is one close-fitting sweater that wants to show off everything you’ve got in the best way it knows how.  We like a sweater with good intentions.  -- description from Big Girl Knits, pg. 33
