Available October 19th

Imagine waking up to a fresh snowfall on a clear winter day. The Snowglobe Sweater invokes those same peaceful feelings with its simple color work design and nods to vintage ski sweaters. It is knit from the top down in the round with both circular yoke increases and raglan shaping, a stockinette body, and corrugated sleeve ribbing.
