Find your true summer style in this easy, comfortable pullover, and pair it with anything from cutoffs to a long, breezy skirt. Each side of the sweater is knit separately, from the cuff to the middle, and the garter stitch halves are sewn together vertically along the center-front and center-back. A heavy worsted weight cotton or cotton blend yarn will lend itself well to this style, giving a nice drape to the garter stitch fabric.
