Jill Thompson Beach Collection | Fall 2023

Details
The Moonflower Sweater, knit in 3 colors of delightfully cozy Alpaca Heather, features a repetitive and relaxing colorwork pattern at the yoke. Its design is reminiscent of the last of the fall blooms and evokes memories of apple picking and enjoying a warm cider donut after.

Construction
This cropped sweater is worked in one piece from the top down. After completing the circular yoke, the stitches are divided for the lower body and sleeves. The body is worked in the round to the lower edge, and the sleeves are worked separately in the round down to the cuffs.
