With modishly retro styling inspired by brightly-colored building blocks, Modine’s bold patterns and cozy textures are designed to spark creativity and delight the senses. Soft and springy Arbor yarn knits up with snuggly squish in the two- or four-color mosaic colorwork yoke, with only one color per round to keep track of! Seamless, top-down construction and options for customizing the length of the yoke, body, and sleeves makes knitting — and fitting — this colorful pullover a breeze.
