Dottie is a classy, elegant cardigan with a cozy draped collar, and inset pockets.

Loose and oversized, certain to be a favorite with classic, clean lines, and a cute all-over dot stitch pattern mirrored in the collar and edging.

I had comfort in mind designing this sweater, I wanted a neat look with oversized comfort, a soft warm yarn, and it must have pockets. It also needed something more exciting than the standard stockinette and rib - hence the dot pattern, which I adore!
