Boyfriend Brioche

$10.00

This reversible, irresistibly cozy sweater is worked in a seamless dolman-style oversized fit at a cropped length. Two-color brioche lets you choose high contrasting colors for a totally different look when you wear it on each side, or use low contrasting options (shown) for a more tonal effect. Either way, this comfy staple is sure to be your go-to layering piece. Worked from the top-down, you can easily add length to the body or sleeves once you see how fabulously it fits you. Choose more or less ease based on your personal preference; the sizing in this design is incredibly flexible. Sweater is shown in Size 5 with approximately 24"/61 cm ease for a positively cozy "boyfriend" oversized fit. Sizing of this sweater is incredibly flexible due to the construction. Feel free to choose a size with anywhere from 10-25"/25.5-63.5 cm positive ease depending on your personal preference.
