It is Andrea Mowry's 2025 Rhinebeck sweater! The inspiration for this sweater began with a beautiful modern rug with undulating curves and turned into this fun liquid looking colourwork yoke.
This sweater is worked from the top down, seamlessly. The sleeve stitches are put on hold while the body is finished and then returned to the needle.
In this yarn bundle version we have stayed close close to the original version using our own Opus as the main colour and Spincycle Yarns Dyed in the Wool as the contrast.
We got so excited for this pattern we put together some other yarn style options, check out our semi-fluffy and super fluffy versions too.
