Ribbing isn’t just for edgings anymore, as this allover ribbed number demonstrates to dramatic effect.

RIBBLED COWLNECK PULLOVER
Ribbing runs wild in this cropped pullover—up and down the body, round and round the cowl, and down the puffed sleeves. The variations in Plymouth’s Mushishi yarn play against the ribbing to add more texture and visual interest.
