The Fairy tale sweater is an oversize style knit, with a waist length in the front and hips length in the back. The sweater has a neckline and is worked top down. The sleeves are wide and they are finished with a twisted cuff. The neck is worked in a Twisted rib stitch pattern which later is folded so it looks neat and beautifully fitted to the neck. The main focus of this sweater is a hem, in which ease and wrinkling are adjusted with two laces on both sides. The Fairy tale sweater fits well with leggings, shorts, and other freestyle clothes. It is a perfect sweater that does not oblige and lets to be relaxed.
