For a laid-back sweatshirt feel with a fun tri-color motif, this ultra-cozy sweater is knit in the round—from the top-down—so you can try it on as you go! The circular yoke and body are embellished with bands of bold colorwork and textural garter stitch ridges. Knit in HiKoo® Simplinatural—a smooth, fluffy, Aran-weight yarn, featuring a sumptuous blend of baby alpaca, fine merino wool, and mulberry silk.

This pattern also features instructions for two neck variations, as well as a full-length or cropped-length body. Charted and written instructions are available for the colorwork.

BONUS! Check out the Winter Roses Hat pattern for an effortless way to use up any partial balls once you’ve finished your sweater!
