FISHERMAN’S SEA SWEATER
The Fisherman’s Sea Sweater is worked seamlessly in the round from the top down, with German Short Rows shaping the neckline for a comfortable fit. Slipped stitches create distinctive texture along the raglan lines, sides, waistband and cuffs. Its relaxed silhouette, straight sleeves and approximately 5 cm / 2 in of positive ease offer a contemporary interpretation of the classic fisherman sweater.
