Wintren is a circular yoke sweater adorned with hearty yet delicate cables. It features a casual fit with a cropped finish making it super flattering and perfect for Winter parties and time with friends & family. The length can be easily adjusted with directions included for shaping the body accordingly. The silhouette is designed to accentuate the body and is flattering with high to mid waist skirts, jeans or trousers. We added a touch of sparkle to make this sweater dazzle and hope that you love knitting this classic and timeless treasure!

The word ‘Wintren’ comes from Old English for “to be wintry”. I feel like cables are the perfect accompaniment to the quintessential Winter sweater.
