An elegant and exceedingly flattering sweater, with back and front featuring an alternating 2 row ridges of reverse stocking stitch.

The narrow centre vertical panel had a simple eyelet pattern that gives a lacy effect. These little eyelet “motifs” are used again on the sleeves.

The neckline is edged with just 2 rows of garter stitch which gives a really neat finish.

The yarn is silky-smooth allowing the garment to hang flatteringly.
