Chanteuse from Lyrical Knits is an even more streamlined Habañera Pullover with a classic, clean lined silhouette. The Chanteuse Pullover is a top-down, seamless pullover worked almost entirely in the round with ¾-length raglan sleeves. Make it in a basic sock yarn for an everyday, go-to sweater, or jazz it up with a special luxury-fiber yarn. Either way, you’re sure to look wonderful with a custom fit. Shaping to the waist and hips is accomplished along princess “seams” to allow for maximum customization. Also included in the pattern is instructions for adding horizontal bust darts as well as a section on how to adapt the shaping to your own fit preferences.
