Basketweave Sweater
The Basketweave Sweater is an oversized, easy-to-wear pullover that showcases variegated yarn beautifully. It is a seamless, bottom up construction with set-in sleeves and I-cord edging. It is designed to have a relaxed fit; if you like a more form-fitting style, drop down a size.
