The Wellfleet Pullover is soft as a cloud, easy to wear, and a breeze to knit. The drop-shoulder construction lends visual interest to the yoke stripes; use a circular needle to avoid breaking and rejoining yarn when working a single stripe. The chainette construction of Shibui Knits Maai lets the supersoft baby alpaca/fine merino shine.
