This nautical inspired sweater, by Clarisse's Closet, has a sweet sailor-style collar and a fitted design, just right for wearing alone as a top, or as a cardigan over a dress or tank. A contrasting stripe along the hemline and collar add to the nautical vibe, and the broken rib waistband and sleeve cuffs add a decorative touch. The sweater is knit flat, with the sleeves and collar knit separately and seamed in place. Choose the cropped length with 4 buttons, or longer length with 5 buttons down the front.
Finished chest circumference: 11 1/2" (29 cm).
