Abigail is the sweater equivalent of comfort food. The kind of sweater to snuggle into when winter winds blow or just when you want to pursue some serious relaxing. Perfect over your favorite jeans or leggings, Abigail’s easy boxy shape is highlighted with color blocked details at the hem and cuffs. Worked in simple Stockinette stitch, knitting Abigail is a breeze. The oversized turtleneck collar has a slouchy drape to it and just in case you’re not into turtlenecks, there’s an option to work Rachel with a simple open scoop neckline instead.
