Introducing The Sweatshirt in 100% cotton Summer yarn. With a renewed appreciation for all things comfy and simple, we wanted to create a lightweight cotton pullover that could be your new wear-everywhere piece- without any compromises on style. In other words, a ‘basic’ that is anything but!

Knit in 100% cotton Summer yarn on size 17 needles, The Sweatshirt has just the right amount of drape and weight to keep it cozy, but light. The sweater is raglan-style, knit in the round from the bottom up.
