SHORT SLEEVE CROCHET SWEATER IN BLACK

🌿 Soft & Cozy  |  💃 Plus-Size Friendly  |  ✨ Effortlessly Chic  |  🖤 Closet Staple

Designed for real curves, real comfort, and effortless layering in sizes 1X–3X.

Meet your new favorite sweater. The Short Sleeve Crochet Sweater in Black is designed for real women and real curves, combining breathable comfort with laid-back style. An airy open-crochet knit balances breathability with polish, while a classic crew neck, relaxed dolman sleeves, and a long crop length give it a silhouette that flatters curves without ever clinging.

It's the ultimate summer-to-fall layer, easy to reach for from chilly mornings to cozy weekends. Throw it over a fitted tank or a lacy bralette, pair with high-rise jeans or a maxi skirt, and you're ready for rooftop drinks, brunch, or just vibing.
