We love this! Canyon by Yumiko Alexander is sure to become a favorite.
It's knit from the top down using Silk+ for a unique slightly tweedy look with amazing drape. The body is worked with no shaping. The V-neck in the back is a focal point. The pattern includes instructions for a longer or shorter length.
