Vanilla is a lovely chunky sweater with a boat neck, drop down shoulders, and a delicate basket weave pattern on the body. The sweater is soft and chunky yet still light, and it is knitted top down using 2 strands of Handdyed Fat Mohair.

The sweater is knitted top down, first the back is worked, then the front. The side seams are sewn together up to the armhole. Stitches are then picked up at the armhole for the sleeves. The sleeves are worked in the round and finished with an i-cord edge.
