stripes with a twist
Stripes with a twist is a pullover that features a buttoned turtle neck, stripes, extra long sleeves with thumbholes and a playful (easy) stitch pattern that makes the stripes go dancing.
It is worked top-down, seamlessly in the round with a contiguous sleeve inset developed by Susie Myers.
