The Illusionist Sweater features an off-shoulder or boat neck shawl collar. The body is designed to fit snugly, hugging the curves of the figure, while the sleeves come with a ruffled bell cuff option, although a straight sleeve variation is also included in the pattern. This sweater offers a contemporary twist on medieval style, combining comfort with a touch of allure.
