Rosewood, a comfortable cardigan sweater with a fun allover polka-dot stitch that nicely accents the subtly variegated yarn. Sure to become a favorite sweater!

A finer knit in a sport weight yarn - the fantastic Plucky Primo Sport - with plenty of stockinette with the rhythm of the stitch pattern preventing boredom.

Details include a mock side seam and slight waist shaping, long sleeves and a scooped crew neck. The only seaming required is sewing the sleeves to the body.

Knit in once piece to the armholes, divided with fronts/back continued separately. Sleeves are knit in the round and sewn to the body, with the once piece button band added last.
