The moment I saw The Uncommon Thread’s Grass is Always Greener color, I knew I was going to knit a cardigan version of Starboard Rock in it! While Starboard Rock is still my favorite every day pullover, Sunset Rock is quickly taking the place of my perfect everyday cardigan. Knit in sport weight yarn with plenty of positive ease, it is wearable throughout the year and the wide shawl collar gives Sunset Rock an extra elegance, so it can be worn dressed up or down.

Suset Rock is knit all-in-one piece from the bottom up with minimal seaming.
