Tinicum Marsh is the largest remaining freshwater tidal wetland in Pennsylvania, an oasis of nature tucked amidst urban Philadelphia.

The not-quite cabled texture on the front of the Tinicum pullover is inspired by the gentle flow of the tidal marsh there.

Worked in a lightweight yarn, this loose fitting sweater has a wonderful drape and a flattering fit for all body types.

The slim, bracelet length sleeves are worked in reverse Stockinette stitch with generous ribbing.

This sweater fits a wide range of sizes, depending on how much ease you want. The sample shown is size XS with about 12” of ease.

Notes on making easy modifications for the length, sleeve length, and upper sleeve width are given in the instructions so you can have a garment that fits just as you like.
