Style
A boxy and somewhat cropped pullover with a geometric flare. A great way to combine two favorite colors and a chance to get a little creative. If you prefer, you can knit the back in the contrast color rather then the main color. Instructions are also given for lengthening the sweater. Neck is a mock turtle neck. Two different stitches are used.
