This sweater design was inspired by the book series, “A Court Of Thorns And Roses” by Sara J. Maas. ‍♀️ This fingering weight cropped sweater is the perfect layering garment for Spring! With just a pinch of lace weight Suri alpaca thrown in for color B, it’s not too hot, and not too cold.

The cropped sleeves and body of the sweater are very customizable for all bodies! Sizes go from a 31” bust to a 63” bust (ease added in to finished measurement) !

This sweater is great for all different kinds of outfits! Try it over dresses, high waisted jeans, shorts, and under overalls!
