sideKick is a fun and flirty, 3/4 sleeve, drop shoulder pullover with lace insertions. True to its name, sideKick is willing to quietly and stylishly direct the limelight to you. The front just skims the top of your low-rise jeans, and the longer back keeps you covered - sideKick’s got your back!

sideKick comes in six sizes 32-42. It is designed to fit a little loose, but not baggy.

The lace panels which form the neck, shoulders and part of the sleeves are knit on the smaller size needle and at a slightly different gauge.

I used Imperial Yarn Tracie Too for the lace and Tracie for the body (Tracie has been discontinued), but Tracie Too would be a good choice for the entire project. Sport weight cotton or a cotton blend would also be good choices.

2 skeins of Tracie Too for the body (main color) - approx. 590 yards used for size 32. (up to 1000 yards for size 42)

1 skein of Tracie Too for the lace (contrast color) - approx. 215 yards used for size 32. (up to 430 yards for size 42)
