To be honest, in this sweater, you might be an arrogant SOB because you MADE THAT. The most decadent texture and by the end of this sweater, you’ll be able to do lace knitting in your sleep. With its oversized fit, drop shoulders, and lace texture, the To Be So Lonely Sweater will have you falling (in love with it). I can’t blame you, darling.
