An all-over leaf-inspired motif gives this pullover a rich surface texture, with repeating shapes that feel organic and sculptural. The patterning is created with strategically placed increases and decreases, forming raised leaves that play beautifully with light and shadow across the fabric. Worked seamlessly from the bottom up, the design features a relaxed fit, short sleeves, and a clean crew neckline. Narn is a versatile layering piece, equally suited for warm-weather wear or transitional seasons. **Sizes** XS (S, M, L, XL, 2XL), {3XL, 4XL, 5XL, 6XL}: to fit bust 28-30 (32-34, 36-38, 40-42, 44-46, 48-50), {52-54, 56-58, 60-62, 64-66)”/70-75 (80-85, 90-95, 100-105, 110-115, 120-125), {130-135, 140-145, 150-155, 160-165} cm. **Finished Measurements** 35.25 (40.25, 45.5, 50.5, 55.5, 56.25), {62, 65.5, 70.5, 75.5}”/88 (100.5, 114, 126.5, 139, 140.5), {155, 164, 176.5, 189} cm bust circumference.
