A very pretty, flattering design with a simple garter stitch yoke and short sleeves.
The pattern section is not clingy as it is slightly flared with a very interesting mix of patterns giving both a touch of lace and raised shell motifs.
The short sleeves can be easily lengthened if you prefer as there is no shaping before you reach the raglan shaping.
