Project Sleeve is a design for cold days with textured stitches that create a dense and warm fabric.
Stay cosy on winter days in either the long or short version.
Both versions are knitted in Brooklyn Tweed Yarn - the short sample in Arbor (a DK weight), and the long version in Shelter (a worsted weight).
