The Mark II is a pullover based on my favorite Zephyr cardigan. It keeps the top-down seamless design, raglan sleeves, and the short row shoulders of the original, but it repackages this into an even easier-to-knit pullover in fingering weight yarn in the round.

Whether you knit in stripes at the yoke and sleeves or in a solid color, with short or long sleeves, with or without waist shaping, the front lace panels provide the real design punch.
