Bock, by #friendoftheflock Jennifer Parroccini, is the quintessential all-season pullover made for everyone. This pullover sports two front pockets with traditional Celtic knot cables, while the body and sleeves are covered in soothing broken rib stitch, resulting in an easy-to-wear pullover. Bock is a raglan pullover, made from the bottom up in-pieces for a perfect fit and stability in construction for an heirloom design to last forever.
