Tin Can Knits’ Love Note is a sweet little sweater that knits up quickly from the top down. With a high-low hemline, three-quarter sleeves, and a simple lace motif, it’s the perfect garment to wear on its own in warm weather or serve as an elegant layer when it gets cool out. The combination of Rowan Kidsilk Haze (70% mohair, 30% silk) and Kelbourne Woolens Perennial (60% Merino, 25% alpaca, 15% nylon) creates a fabric that is floaty, soft and sensual.
Love Note is available in 8 sizes and is designed to be worn with 4 to 12 inches of positive ease. The sizes listed below correspond to the actual measurement of the finished garment, so to achieve the recommended fit, please choose a size that is approximately 4 to 12 inches larger than your chest measurement.
