Mix-It-Up Sweater
You’ll never tire of knitting (or wearing) this knockout pullover. One side is stitched top to bottom, the other side to side in an artful combination of yarns; details like garter ridges and fringed flap pockets keep things interesting. Looks fabulous on any figure. (Lion Brand Yarn)
