Gravel is the perfect pullover for everyday wear. The simple, classic raglan silhouette is already a favorite among knitters, but add the marled, variegated fabric created by our Cobblestone yarn, and you really have something special! Choose a coordinating color or the sleeve cuffs, hem, and neckband using our sinfully soft Donnina. Whether you choose classic neutrals like we did, or go bold and bright, we’re sure you’ll love knitting and wearing this sweater.
