The Rib Sweater is our answer to a slouchy jersey jumper but with a bit more style. Think ‘big cosy sweatshirt’ that somehow manages to feel both supremely relaxed yet chic.
This pattern comes with two options for the collar height, the full version and a shorter version that sits lower on the neck. It is a simple piece to make which means it’s a great project for beginners.
More info about this pattern can be found in the modern sewing company website.
