Wavy columns of twisted stitches and mirrored cables create a substantial fabric for Freshet, a timeless pullover with a generous turtleneck collar knit in Arbor. This worsted-spun, DK weight yarn knits up into crisp cables that hold their shape wear after wear. Freshet’s slightly cropped hem and fitted sleeves balance out the ease in the body for a modern silhouette. The wide turtleneck happily drapes or can be folded for a classic look.
