Woven Shadows by Yumiko Alexander is flattering on all body types! It's knit using Dan Doh Linen, one of our faves!
There are three sleeve choices : sleeveless, T-style sleeves and 3/4 sleeves. There is no neck shaping so it's easy to adjust the neck width to your preference.
The body stitch pattern includes an eyelet mesh along one edge for the neckline, a stockinette stitch pattern in the center and a woven lace along the edge for the hem. A fun and interesting knit!
