The Green-Day sweater is a short style knit with a wide V neck and short 3/4 sleeves. Sweater has a very wide bust circumference, so it fits well to wear on chilly summer days. V neck is wide and worked in Twisted rib stitch pattern in one piece together with the sweater, so no extra work is required. The sleeves have a balloon shape and are noticeably short. V neck, hem and cuffs are worked in Twisted rib stitch pattern. The sweater is made from two different colour wide bands, that overlap and create a third colour. The Green-Day sweater is a specific style knitwear that looks very well with high waist jeans or other pants and shorts. It is a free movement knitwear and fits perfect for wearing at home.
