Catalina
Enjoy 15% Off the Catalina pattern through midnight PST, Sunday, October 4. (Discount automatic at checkout.)
Vertical columns of stylish eyelets make the Catalina sweater as fun to knit as it is to wear. A crew neckline, set-in sleeves, and relaxed fit give it an easy, understated elegance that pairs naturally with anything in your closet.
