Holly Sweater is our take on the classic Christmas sweater. With a modern twist, a circular yoke construction and a holly wreath pattern around the yoke, it is very Christmassy. Holly Sweater is worked seamlessly top down in the round using 1 strand of Merino + 1 strand of Soft Silk Mohair held together throughout.
