Description: The cable on this classic pullover distracts the eye from a smaller bust (and hides a belly, should the wearer have one). At the hem, the long, belled sleeves combine with thick, tall ribbing to maximize the visual width of the hips and bring them into balance with the shoulders.
Designed for: Top-heavy shapes
Modification ideas: Remember, you look best in clothes you love. That said, to keep in line with the Fit to Flatter system, Proportional shapes might consider either changing the sleeves to straight sleeves with a ribbed cuff or widening the neckline to balance out the original belled sleeves. . Bottom-heavy knitters might consider doing both, or shortening the sleeves to a short-sleeve for maximum shoulder broadening (and a warm-weather option).
