Introducing a stylish and cozy boxy sweater designed with long sleeves and a stunning contrast color lace panel at the front. This eye-catching knit is perfect for anyone looking to add a unique piece to their wardrobe!

This sweater is expertly crafted from the top down, featuring a seamless construction that allows for a smooth and enjoyable knitting experience. The beautifully intricate contrast colored lace panel is worked using the intarsia technique, ensuring a visually captivating look. Once you join the front and back, you’ll continue the lace panel as intarsia in the round. Don't worry if you’re new to this technique; it’s much easier than it seems! We’ve included a helpful photo tutorial on the last page to guide you through the process step by step.

This boxy sweater is designed to be worn with positive ease for a comfortable fit. When selecting your size, aim for approximately 12 inches (30 cm) of positive ease at the bust circumference to achieve that relaxed, cozy look that makes this piece so desirable.
