Faceted Yoke Pullover: by Mary Anne Bennedetto
An architectural beauty that marries form with a warm and wonderful function. You knit this elegant sweater from the top down, incorporating carefully placed increases into a twisted rib yoke. Evoking the symmetry and balance found in classical architecture, these columns of ribs frame your face in radiant lines that emanate from the neckline and effortlessly follow the contours of your shoulders…Very flattering and absolutely lovely, too!
