Berroco Retta is a classic fisherman’s sweater that's been updated with a feminine, cropped silhouette, but the beautiful traditional stitch textures remain the same. Knit in Berroco Vintage yarn, this cabled sweater is machine washable and can be made in many different colors! Retta is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. Cable patterns are charted only.
