❄️ My favorite winter sweater, with lace sleeves

A simple yet elegant knit pullover that’s a pleasure to work on the needles. It’s worked in one piece from the top down, so there’s barely any seaming between you and wearing it.

Sizes run from 8 to 10 years all the way to 2X, so you can make one for yourself and a matching one for a kiddo. Want a baby version? The romper (pictured in pink) is right here: Lace Sleeve Onesie Romper.
