Say hello to the Festival Sweater by new contributing designer, Julie Robinson! In this sweater, Julie mixes two different colors of our warm weather friendly yarn, Wildflower, into a bohemian design perfect for your next music festival or relaxed weekend outing! The fit is airy and loose with a sweet, feminine tie detail along the neckline. Learn more about the designer Julie and the inspiration behind this piece in a fun interview I did with her here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFU_rXx3PF0

This sweater is knit in a fun and interesting construction! You’ll knit 2 panels for your sweater front that will later be seamed up the center. Then you’ll knit your back panel in one piece, followed by both raglan sleeves. You’ll seam all of these pieces together at the end and finally add a braided tie along the neckline.
