Brassica Pullover
Brassica Pullover is a seamless top-down raglan sweater using worsted-weight yarn. It features an easy textured stitch pattern along the front of the sweater as well as the wrists, giving the sweater some visual interest. A classic silhouette, this sweater has a little bit of waist shaping and can be easily altered to be shorter or longer in length.
