Essex by Rosemary Drysdale

Craft: Knitting

A pattern featuring NORO yarn Haruito.

Bring a beach vibe to your office slacks in Drysdale’s poncho pullover, knit in oceanic HARUITO #6 Myoko. Single ribbing trims the hems and flows up through the edgings on the open sides. Deep shoulder shaping creates a sleek, draped fit. The armhole bands are added in finishing.
