The Cozy Thoughts Sweater is a stunning design, knit in a simple colorwork pattern and silhouette. It’s ideal to wear as a sweater coat in those not yet freezing fall days and all winter long as the cold persists. This pattern is updated now from its original form to be knit top down and seamless. This update improves the overall fit and as an added bonus, there are a lot less ends to weave in! Stitches are picked up around the front and neck edges to complete this piece with an oversized, ribbed collar. Let your creative self shine by choosing a fun colorway that feels like you.
