MAKEMECHIC Open Back Criss Cross Sweater

Noon and a terrace table. The knit sits over a light top or on bare skin and leaves the back open, the criss cross detail drawing the eye across the shoulder blades. The V-neck fronts the look with a simple line. White reads bright against sun and shade. The piece layers without crowding the neckline.

Later, it hangs easily from a hanger or a chair, forgiving the wrinkle that gathers in a day of movement. The knit is steady rather than heavy. The open back and backless construction make the sweater a deliberate choice when a simpler pullover will do more.

One of 229 on the knits and layers rail in the MAKEMECHIC range. 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.
