Widener Pullover
The Widener Pullover is a handsome and casual shawl-collar pullover that combines classic gansey elements with cables and texture. Pops of contrast color at the collar and cuffs add an unexpected touch to this classic menswear sweater. The design is worked from the bottom up in pieces; needle sizes vary to accommodate gauge variations in the stitch patterns.
