Sometimes you just need a simple, easy-to-knit, and comfortable sweater. A quick and uncomplicated project with the subtlest feminine shaping, this sweater is made interesting by the colors of Mandala Ombre which works up surprisingly soft. Sweater is worked flat with modified drop shoulder construction; sleeves are picked up and worked from the body down to the cuff. Sweater should be worn with positive ease, so pick a size bigger than your bust measurement.
