Description

This beautiful drop shoulder sweater designed by Andrea Mowry is a firm favorite all year round. The boxy shape and generous positive ease make it effortless to wear whether you are in the office or out on a hike. The Weekender has a 1x1 neck ribbing that extends out to create additional shoulder detailing and the center line is a faux seam, making it a fun knitting project. And don't worry if you aren't a fan of purling— you knit this project inside out!
