Curvy Month 7: Mara Openwork Sweater, c. 1950s

I really love this pattern, it’s so unusual! Knit from the bottom up and featuring dolman sleeves, this pattern requires you to knit garter bands on fine needles, then one row on very large needles. It gives a really pleasing effect and I think it would work up very quickly too.
