Practical luxury. The Spalding pullover’s everyday appeal is elevated by plush half-brioche ribbing and a double-knit shawl collar, set off by trim stockinette shoulders and clean, fold-over hems. With seamless, top-down raglan construction and a relaxed, unisex fit, Spalding knits up light and lofty in Shelter’s handsome woolen-spun heathers, sumptuously soft in Imbue Worsted’s rich worsted-spun tweeds.

Construction
- The garment is worked seamlessly from the top down. The yoke is worked flat with raglan and neckline shaping. The sleeves and body are separated and the body is joined and worked circularly to the hem, then the sleeves are worked circularly to the cuff. The shawl collar stitches are picked up and joined to the neck edge as they are worked.
