There’s nothing better than a hooded sweater in the autumn! Paridae is a comfortable, cozy sweater that wraps you in warmth, with sleeves long enough to pull over your fingers when sipping that hot apple cider, and a hood generous enough to keep your head and shoulders warm without the dreaded hat-hair.

Knit from the bottom up, the sleeves are attached at the yoke, with decreases leading up to the hood making this a practically seamless sweater!

Want to knit Paridae in the beautiful Zen Yarn Garden? Kits are available!

Or, would you like to knit Pariade in the comfy and cozy Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Tweed? Kits are available for this, as well!
