“I love the way a rustic, tweedy wool looks when worked in garter stitch,” says designer Jared Flood. Inspired by a recent trip to Dublin, he designed this pullover to be both intuitive to work and easy to wear. With a rounded garter yoke and garter panels flanking the body on each side, the design brings geometry to the classic wool sweater.
