The whole point of the sweater and shirt combo (apart
from looking preppy-chic) is being able to remove the
knitwear when it’s hot – so don’t leave yourself with a
boring blouse underneath! With a great choice of sleeve
and hem lengths, as well as options for the front and neck
bands, yoke and collar, this pattern offers both comfort
and a choice of styles. New Look 6266,
