Three distinct yarns in complementary colorways come together for a touchable pullover that uses slipped stitches as all over texture. The ribbed cuffs, neckline, and hem stabilize the garment while adding contrast. Dropped sleeves and the normal 2 inches of ease at the chest add to the fitted look while maintaining comfortable movement.
