“In vain I have struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.” ~Jane Austen.

Marry Me Darcy is a sweater for everyone who is done being repressed! Live your best life and settle for nothing less than the most epic of romances, the most exciting of lives, and of course, the most pleasant of knits.

The design was inspired by the ornate cameos that I imagine Elizabeth Bennett would have worn. The wide sleeves and A-line shaping coupled with lace at the cuffs and collar invoke a feeling of fancy and whimsy while still reminding the world that it had better step lightly because your beauty does not dull your claws.
