The Cora Plaid Pullover is a boxy pullover that is perfect for summer knitting and layering! The body features a large twisted stitch motif from Norah Gaughan’s Twisted Stitch Sourcebook. The fitted ribbed sleeves offer a nice balance to the oversized body. The Cora Plaid Pullover is knit up in Universal Yarn’s Bamboo Pop yarn, a blend of bamboo and cotton, making it cool to wear and giving a lovely weighted drape to the fabric.
