MAKEMECHIC Bell Sleeve Knit Sweater

The crochet bell sleeve knit sweater comes off the chair at dusk and folds into the brief pause before dinner. The knit holds a soft outline across the shoulder and the sleeves finish in a wide, fluted fall that moves with the arms. Beige sits quiet. It layers without fuss and reads as an intentional choice beside jeans or a skirt.

It asks a small trade-off. The bell sleeve narrows certain jackets and bags. It is not the easiest under a close-fitting coat. What it does is declare the sleeve, so plan the outer layers around that shape.

One of 229 on the knits and layers rail in the MAKEMECHIC catalogue. It also answers to sweaters. A size letter describes the garment rather than a body, and the way we keep the figures current is set out on how we update the catalogue.
