DESIGN INFORMATION
Sencillo is the Spanish word for “simple” and this pullover is the perfect embodiment of that. The easy shape, classic v-neck, and casual drop shoulders combine to create the perfect all-season pullover. Knit in a cotton-linen blend, it’s an easy layer as the temperatures slowly cool into fall and winter.

CONSTRUCTION INFORMATION
Sencillo is worked in pieces from the bottom up and seamed together after being blocked. The front and back each start with a garter stitch trim to create the side slit.

Sleeves are worked from the cuff to the upper arm, starting with a narrow cuff of garter stitch. Stitches are increased from the cuff to the upper arm.
