After making a pair of velvet leggings, I knew that I needed something fabulous to wear with it…. and it seemed like a sweater was the perfect compliment. I had picked up this white “mohair” fabric when I bought the velvet material and decided that it would work perfectly. I figured that a simpler pattern design would work best, so I opted to use Jalie’s Romy. I wanted my finished sweater to be longer than the shirt, but not tunic length (because I wanted to show off those leggings!) so I added 3″ to the length of the top to come up with this:

Both items are so comfortable to wear and look great together. I think it’s screaming “Valentine’s Day” to me!
