With a subtlety akin to soft watercolors, this delicately detailed pullover reads like a ready-to-wear garment with thoughtful finishing details sure to engage a knitterly mind. After the body and sleeves are worked flat in pieces and seamed, the neckband is then picked up and knit in the round to completion. Small lace eyelets accent a slimming, geometric front panel that flatters any shape, and an optional, innovative double-knit hem anchors the easy flow of Peerie’s finished fabric. Bring polish and simplicity to your style with the deliciously minimalist Aquatint pullover.
We love Ever Greene so much that we decided to make it even easier for you to own the whole collection! Purchase the four-pattern bundle on BrooklynTweed.com and pay $6 less than the sum of the single patterns purchased separately. The designer will still receive their full commission and you will have filled out your library with a classic array of modern, all-weather staples.
