Description
The planets align in perfect orbit around the yoke of this lovely sweater. Lines, dashes, and dollops of color playfully encircle the collar, and the seamless, top-down construction makes for a simple knit. Designer Melanie Berg says, 'When you use Amble by The Fibre Co., the wonderfully soft fabric will make for a sweater you’ll love to live in.'
