Cropped Tweedy Pullover Knitting Pattern Download

Description

Knitted with a super-soft wool-acrylic yarn, this cropped tweedy pullover is as comfortable as a sweatshirt but exceedingly more versatile. It’s more flattering, too, thanks to set-in sleeves and a subtle twisted rib that draws in the sides and accents the neck.
