Bawi is the ultimate oversized sweater in a lovely thick aran tweed yarn, making it the perfect transitional sweater. Use it as you would a jacket over other knitwear or as a perfect statement piece in your wardrobe. The sweater is worked top-down, with increases along the shoulder, and the front and back pieces are worked along the sleeve hole one at a time. The sweater is worked inside out to avoid working in mostly purl stitches.
