This will be a go to sweater: from Leggings, Jeggings, Jeans and Skirts it goes with everything. I have about 5 of these in all different colors and a couple are in solids too. You’ll love it. The pleats are definitely hard at first but so worth the patience as the look is just gorgeous. If you want a smaller version just use smaller needles. It takes about 4 balls fingering weight and about 900 - 1000 yards.
