The Zodiac Sweater designed by Erika Knight is a pullover full of interest and elegance. Knit in luxurious Road to China Light, the Zodiac Sweater is a glamourous addition to an evening outfit, or a luxurious treat to wear for yourself at home. The sweater features a cable that begins at a split hem and traverses the sweater to the neck, dividing the sweater between a wide rib and textured rib pattern.

The Almanac Series II
The Zodiac Sweater is part of The Almanac Series II, which is a seasonal guide to knitting with The Fibre Co. yarns. Based on the original farmer’s Almanac guide to the seasons, this collection celebrates each month of the year with our Yarn of the Month and a new design launch in that yarn.

For The Almanac Series II, we looked to the heavens for inspiration. The beauty and grandeur of the night sky and awe-inspiring astronomical phenomena guided our creativity.
