This worsted weight sweater makes the perfect companion to summer evenings and winter hikes. Andrea Mowry's Throwover features a graphic colorwork pattern making use of three different colours of Spincycle's Dream State combined with a classic stockinette stitch. A great sweater project for beginner knitters to colorwork due to the use of worsted weight wool (this will knit up quick!) and no floats too short or long to help you perfect your tension.
