Subtlety in textured stripes is the name of the game with Roberta, a summer-ready pullover designed by Cecily Glowik MacDonald and worked in Cleaner Cotton™ Willet. Making use of our cotton bird’s softness and drape, this raglan beauty is worked in the round from the top down, making it a breeze to knit.
