Product description

Flip pancakes. Stack firewood. Plant a few more bulbs to surprise yourself next April. This easy pullover will see you through whatever the day holds in comfort and style. With a light fabric of Loft, ample sleeves, a feminine neckline, a gentle A-line form, and a curved back hem, Gable will layer as effortlessly as any sweatshirt. But it distinguishes itself with a few well-chosen details. A simple triangle of twisted rib adds interest above the front hem. The sleeves are worked with wide cuffs in twisted rib for a casual air. The knitting is entirely seamless, with the body and sleeves worked in the round and then joined to form the circular yoke. Pick a color you’ll want to wear until your Gable is ragged with years of service, as this versatile sweater is sure to be a firm favorite.
