Lombarda is a shortsleeve sweater with a boxy, slightly A-line shape. It’s a great piece with subtle interest and a front curved ribbed panel made without any actual cables. As a spring wardrobe addition, Lombarda can give the traditional jeans and a t-shirt a great twist. The front, back, and sleeves are knit separately and are seamed at the end. Two subtle shirttail curves are worked with short rows.
