Reviews
I absolutely love the sweater I made with this pattern. The details are so lovely and it fits like a glove. Probably the best fitting garment I own!
This is a great top for those who are looking to accentuate their figure and curves. The diamond mesh pattern visually broadens and straightens the shoulders, and the optional bust darts are very satisfying. This is a very comfortable fitted top and can magically boost your confidence!
