Uncomplicated and effortless to make – worked from cuff to cuff and creating a neck opening as you work, sew-up seams to armholes, pick-up and work the 4ply collar and base section in the round. Casting-off with an easy and rhythmic stretchy stitch repeat gives a fluid and swingy hem and neck edge. The silk fibre in our MOONSHINE yarns makes this easy jumper shine.

Enjoy!
