The Unfold sweater combines a simple surface with a shape that is a bit unusual. The body is worked in stockinette stitch, and the collar, hem and cuffs feature 1 x 1 rib. The wide and long collar is perfect for cocooning in wintertime. The two yarns worked together create a beautiful texture that’s both firm, soft and slightly fluffy with a subtle colour play.
