Rathbone Kit (Acadia)

Designer, Holli Yeoh, created this v-neck sweater, which has a flattering a-line shape and subtle texture on the sleeves and along the neck. It is worked from the bottom up in pieces and seamed. Originally, the sweater was designed in our Arranmore Light yarn, but has now been reimagined in our Acadia yarn, which has a luxurious hand and creates a fabric with lovely drape. This kit is also available in Arranmore Light.
