The Bookworm Pullover is a scholarly-inspired sweater. The body features a striking allover cable and bobble pattern. The bottom edge features an uneven ribbed edge that is left open on the sides. The body has subtle A-Line shaping, making the longer length perfect for fitting over curves. The V neckline, drop shoulder shape, and short sleeves make for a comfy fit and easy layering. Knit up in Harrisville Designs Daylight yarn, available in off-white shades with subtle flecks of color, the Bookworm Pullover is engaging to knit and fun to show off!
