Shore Leave
Absolutely simple to knit, this striped boat-neck pullover makes a terrific first sweater project. The stripes keep it looking fresh and add a little interest to the knitting and using a stretch cotton like elann.com Esprit gives it a very comfortable fit and feel.
Because of Esprit’s wonderful give, you can choose to knit your project oversized (as modelled) or with little to no ease for a more fitted look.
