I made a mesh sweater last year that never really fit me well.  The armhole was too large and despite the fact that it had sleeves, it always felt sloppy.  I frogged it for the beautiful Paton's Grace cotton and came up with this instead.  I decided to add a little shaping in the waist which makes the sweater look more up-to-date and flattering to my figure.  The style is nice enough to wear on a dressy occasion but can also team up with jeans and a t-shirt.  Sorry to all you pattern-a-holics...no pattern for this since I just whipped it up as I went along and didn't take any notes!
