Just the thing for December festivities, this soft, cozy sweater and matching mittens belong wherever a warming fire flickers and the smell of hot chocolate lingers. Constructed top-down in the round in sizes for everyone, the sweater features a subtle cable yoke and a distinctive braided cuff like the mitts, shown here in Yuletide cinnamon. Really, it’s great winter-round style!
