I Know That Look is a delicate pullover with a questionable name – there’s a story there.  This design is worked bottom up and seamlessly in the round.  Shown in Quince & Co.’s Tern yarn, this silk wool blend knits up lightly with wonderful drape.  Half-length sleeves are bottom up in the round as well, with short rows at their cap for smooth shaping and ease in setting in.  Extending just below the elbow, I think of these as long-short sleeves – a perfect length for seasonal transitions.  Enjoy!
