Colvin DK
Every closet needs a quintessential turtleneck, and this one is our favorite. We just can’t wear Colvin enough, so we make a second version delivering the same subtle curved hem and fully-fashioned shoulder decreases, but in a lighter fabric and minus the decorative stitch detail.
Construction
Garment is worked from the bottom up in pieces and sewn together, then the collar is worked circularly.
