Avena by Emily Greene

Craft: Knitting

This pattern is available on Ravelry.

Emily’s sweet pullover is an instant classic that we can’t wait to cast on ourselves. Knit in soft and squishy Owl, a blend of wool and alpaca, this simple yet soothing knit has something to offer everyone. From its dropped sleeves to its sweet little details to its classic boxy silhouette, Avena is the pullover you’ll be reaching for again and again. Shown here in Tawny, this piece can be knit in virtually any colorway of Owl—from its classic neutrals to its vibrant shades.
