Transforming a simple eyelet fabric into a trendsetting pullover, Scripps plays with negative space and lends itself to all kinds of creative layering possibilities. An exaggerated curved hemline, loose fitting bodice and 3/4 sleeves all make this a stunning pullover that is as joyful to knit as it is to wear. Shown here in The Fibre Co.’s Canopy Fingering with its beautiful soft shine and drape, Scripps can also be knit using Cumbria Fingering for a slightly stiffer look.
