Description:

This cozy armless sweater is a no-sew project with unique ribbing that gives it texture and a snug yet modern finish. Worn easily over a blouse or shirt like a gilet, it makes a versatile layer for the season. At the center, a bold pumpkin motif steals the show—its glowing eyes, nose, and wide, scary laugh stitched in special yarn that lights up in the dark. The eyes are not triangular, giving the face a quirky twist, and the whole design brings together warmth, creativity, and just the right touch of spooky fun.
