Badger and Bloom

Badger and Bloom Unisex by Anne Ventzel
Isager Soft, colors E0, E4S

Hit the outdoors or relax at home in this relaxed pullover by designer Anne Ventzel. Badger and Bloom Unisex is cozy & warm with a soft halo.

This beautiful knit features a striking stranded colorwork yoke, hem & cuffs that accent the sweater perfectly. It is knit in Isager Soft (formerly named Eco Soft). Light & fluffy, the yarn is constructed by taking an organic cotton chainette tube & blowing natural alpaca fiber inside. The result is a beautiful tonal yarn with a subtle halo.

The sweater is knit top down, in the round with the short rows worked before the yoke is divided for body & sleeves to create roominess, as well as a good fit across the back. Anne recommends the sweater be worn with 4”-8.6” of positive ease (photo is 8.6” positive ease).
