This stunning sweater was inspired by the berries that dot the mossy lava fields of Iceland.

The silhouette is a slight A-line, with a hem that dips in the back, thanks to a few short rows.

The pattern includes instructions for both a long-sleeved version and a vest version.

Bonus feature: at this gauge, you can bang out this sweater fast (and we will)!
