This sweater is the companion piece to my Cicada Shawl. The eponymous lace pattern has found a new home as a v-shaped inset on the yoke of an otherwise-simple pullover, where it frames the face in a lovely and eye-catching way.

Finished Bust Measurements:
32.75 (36.5, 40.5, 45, 48.75, 52.5, 56.5)“
83 (92.5, 103, 114.5, 124, 133.5, 143.5) cm.

Shown in colorway “Sea Spray.” The yarn used in the sample is June Pryce Fiber Arts “Special DK” (50% merino, 50% silk, 300 yds/274 m; 5 oz/145g). For each size, you will need 3 (3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5) skeins.
