Wintland Sweater is a top-down seamless yoke sweater. It has short rows at the back of the neck to create a natural fit, and a colourwork yoke featuring a mix of purples, with a white contemporary winter pattern. There is optional waist and hip shaping to add feminine shape, and the bottom hem is finished off with ribbing. The sleeve cuffs enhance the yoke with complimentary patterned colourwork.
