Birch Pullover by Andrea Mowry

This pullover is the ultimate squishy wardrobe staple. Knit from the top down in a Half Fisherman’s rib stitch, it is warm and cozy and goes with everything! Because this sweater is knit from the top down, you can try it on as you go and add length to suit your own personal style. Start at the collar and then flow into Half-Fishermen’s Rib with raglan shaping, ending with wide hems at wrists and hips for a totally seamless sweater!

Kit includes pattern and selected yarn. Pattern includes 9 sizes, of which some have been combined for kit purposes only. For yarn winding services, click here.
