Wild Flower Box Top
Who doesn’t love a good Jeopardy before and after? Well, this daily double has got you covered. Easy lace wildflowers cascade from the shoulders into the boxes below. It’s not quite a sweater, yet neither is it quite a vest or poncho. What is it? It’s a Box Top!
Knit from the top down this garment features a V neck, shoulder shaping, open arms and lots of positive ease. Perfect to throw on when there’s a chill in the air and looks great over leggings, jeans or even a casual dress.
