The Austin boatneck sweater is perfect for layering - super soft, comfortable and lightweight, but also adds a wonderful splash of colour and warmth.

The stitches are small, but don’t be put off. This pattern knits up quickly and is super simple. Its a perfect classic piece to round out any wardrobe - lucky for us Quince and Co Piper comes in a variety of lovely colors!
