When your lounging agenda demands serious hygge, it’s hard to beat a shawl-collared pullover in chunky wool. Bingham works up rapidly in Quarry, with the hem knit in a variable rib that sets up engaging panels of cables feeding into a central plait on the front and back. A straight torso and raglan shoulder shaping create a relaxed look without sacrificing good design; the decrease rate shifts subtly to nibble away excess fabric for an anatomical fit.
This pattern is part of Michele Wang’s CAPSULE Collection for Brooklyn Tweed. You can purchase all patterns in this collection as an e-book at brooklyntweed.com
