Part of the original SHIBUI FORM collection introduced in the Fall of 2013, VEER is the second in my 10th Anniversary relaunches. Deceptively simple, this v-neck, tunic length sweater is knit in the round, with a flattering dropped hemline. Simple increases define the shape, and fitted sleeves are juxtaposed against the loose, easy fit.

And, I am so excited to launch VEER in sizes ranging from XS to 3X. VEER has been a staple in my sweater wardrobe, since it launched. The combination of these 2 yarns from Shibui is my favorite. Almost iridescent, light weight and soft to the touch, Cima and Silk Cloud knit up into a luxurious fabric. I am so excited to have it available now in my full size range!
