I’m singing in the rain, just singin’ in the rain
What a glorious feeling, I’m happy again…

Why not celebrate the rain? This fair-isle yoke pullover is worked from the top down, in the round, with no seaming required at all. Small buttons add interest to this simple but super cute little sweater.
Play with colors! Have you ever dreamt of purple rain?
