Rooftop Sweater
The Rooftop Sweater is a top-down drop-shoulder textured sweater featuring broken rib and garter stitches. The texture is inspired by the charming trim below the rooftops of San Francisco homes. The combination of lines and squares form a familiar yet unique texture for this cozy, classic sweater.
