• Product description

  Perfectly highlighting a whimsical silhouette with an Escher-esque textured yoke, the Railfence pullover is both a city and a country mouse. Will yours be pleasing in pastel, or perhaps radical in red? Cast on a Railfence for each in two different colorways of Peerie yarn for two visually unique pieces, perhaps short sleeves on one and long sleeves for the other.
