Description
This unisex boatneck pullover sweater was designed for the #2516 Country Classic DK brochure by Sirdar.
Knitted in pieces then seamed, each striped sweater is accented with pops of a contrasting colourway in the ribbed edges.
The drop shoulders are modified with some set in tailoring for a relaxed look that does not look sloppy.
