Introducing the Whiskey Grandpa Henley! The comfiest, coziest pullover to just toss on on those gloomy days. It features a boxy, slightly cropped fit that you’ll find yourself reaching for when you’re looking for a cute but comfy outfit for the day.

This pattern is knit using an aran weight yarn, and really shines when using a blown yarn to achieve that cozy yet light fabric. It’s knit seamless and flat from the bottom up, and with the chunky needles, it will just fly off your needles.
