Azimuth
A modern Audrey Hepburn sweater, if I do say so myself.
Room to layer. Room to move. Classic, gorgeous, flattering. Modern sleeves. Timeless style.
Wear me over your favorite dress. With white capris. With jeans. Layered over your favorite stripes.
Texture so rich and gorgeous that it shines, even in soft black wool. Azimuth is knit top-down with a ballet-style neckline and contiguous set-in sleeves that are knit as you go. No seaming! The delicious cable design is easily memorized and makes for nice repetition - especially once you pass the sleeve divide. But read closely! The increases around the upper body and sleeves are unique to create the contiguous sleeve shaping.
