This classic drop-shoulder sweater silhouette never goes out of style, and this latest variation on Mona Schmidt’s Léger pattern proves it! By substituting a V neck, a cropped length and a shorter sleeve, this Espace Tricot stand-by gets a maritime makeover. Try it with jeans or white capris for a fresh summer summer look.
