Martha from Rowan is a stunning must-have women’s striped
pullover crocheted in Alpaca Soft DK, a luxurious blend of wool and alpaca with
tight plies that provide excellent stitch definition. The sweater features
dropped shoulders, a crew neckline, and horizontal bobbles and stripes. Martha
is worked flat in pieces from the bottom up and then seamed. The neckband
stitches are worked in the round.
