Venetian
Wide fitting with gorgeous chunky cables and gentle-fit ridged funnel neck makes this over-top a real winner.
The sleeves appear to be worked all in one with the back and front. But this is not the case, the sleeves are worked separately sideways, with no shaping, and then stitched to the yoke with mattress stitch.
The simplicity of the shape adds chic to this design.
I chose this lovely rich, warm red as it is typical of historical venetian costume colours - hence the design name! But would look wonderful in any colour.
