Bold colorwork and playful geometry define this short-sleeved pullover. The round yoke features striking bands of stripes, scallops, and polka-dot motifs that flow together in an eye-catching palette.
Below the yoke, the body transitions into smooth stockinette with subtle textured accents, letting the vibrant upper section instantly catch attention.
