Skein sweater is a hip-length style knit with a mock neck and short balloon sleeves. Fit is slightly oversize and sweater bottom width is a little bit shrunken that gives a feminine silhouette to it. Sleeves are short and have balloonish shape and are decorated with cable knit alongside the sleeve center to the cuffs. Skein sweater is worked top-down in Stockinette stitch pattern that makes it easy to customize to fit your preferred sweater and sleeves length. Skein sweater is a very feminine silhouette knit that fits well with skirts, dresses, and of course with various pants.
