A sweater you’ll want to knit and wear again and again! Thornapple’s special details include a baffled neckline, short-row shaping, a pretty “thorn” stitch pattern scattered down sleeves and body, and a gorgeous yoke made up of little twisted-stitch cables.

Thornapple is knitted in one piece seamlessly from the top down. Wrapless short-rows shape yoke. Small provisional cast-ons are worked at the underarms.
