• Product description

  With optional front pockets and a roomy reverse stockinette stitch yoke, the cozy Cilfor sweater is made for weekends. Including two variations in sleeve length and separate instructions for either a classic pullover or a longer tunic, Gudrun Johnston has created a no-frills classic with endless possibilities. 100% Targhee-Columbia wool Shelter yarn gives Cilfor rugged softness and plenty of tweedy texture. 

  
  

  Both versions are knit circularly from the top down. The yoke is worked from the same pattern for both the tunic and the pullover versions, with separate instructions for body length and body shaping for each. The pattern includes optional front pockets.

  Designer: Gudrun Johnston

  Collection: Fall 2019
