Mango Smoothie
Mango Smoothie was a request from my daughter, Maya. She wanted something big and slouchy and easy to wear. We loved this allover texture motif, accented by a few bold cables to create flattering lines. The texture is easy to memorize and quick to work up, and the cables make it possible to modify your shaping if desired. Knit seamlessly from the top down.
