Pictor is a classic v-neck pullover with unisex appeal that features rib stitch columns and pops of contrasting color on the trim. Knit in Valley Yarns Northfield, this sweater promises to be cozy warm and incredibly soft, thanks to the blend of Merino wool, alpaca, and silk. Pictor is knit in the round from the bottom up to the underarms where the back and front are completed separately and seamed at the shoulders. Sleeves are also knit in the round to the underarm with knit-flat caps and are set into the armholes during finishing. Pictor is a versatile sweater with a casual and wide-ranging style that will work for just about everyone on your knitworthy list! Rib stitch is both charted and written out.
