Description

Worked in one piece from sleeve edge to sleeve edge, this easy-wearing sweater showcases the beauty of the herringbone stitch. Cuffs tame the batwing sleeves, and a deep waistband is flattering to many figures. The bamboo/cotton-blend yarn, perfect for a transitional season, gives the sweater lovely drape.
