Who says you can’t look sexy in the winter? The flowing sleeves and over-the- top turtleneck of this sweater frame a shaped silhouette that graces your body with a dazzling openwork of diamonds. Worn over a light-colored camisole or shell, this sweater is perfect for a winter dinner date or fireside tete-a-tete.

I based the shape of this design on my favorite store-bought lacy sweater, with a drapey shape that reminded me of a flowing waterfall. After years of people asking me, "Did you knit that?!" I was finally able to say, "Yes!" And now you will, too. Download
