Ronda Spring sweater
A wonderfully light weight sweater with round yoke and knitted motifs. This sweater is knitted top down in the round and has short sleeves. Shortened rows at the back of the neck ensure a good fit and extra room can even be created at the front if needed!
The name ‘Ronda’ refers to the surname of the designer.
