Knit with two strands of silk/mohair lace weight yarn held together, the Globetrotter Sweater is a form-fitting design with a high neck and half fisherman’s rib at the waist. It’s knit from the top down with raglan increases on the yoke, which makes it easy to try on along the way and customize the fit and length for your body.
