Ritha sweater
I just love a circular yoke sweater. If it has stranded work, I like it even better. Something feels very traditional and timeless with circular yoke sweaters.
This sweater is knitted top down. The yoke has a flower pattern explained by a chart.
The fit of the sweater is loose, but not oversized.
