Austin is a children's design with simple colorwork patterning on the yoke. Using Rowan’s delightfully soft, machine-washable Pure Wool Superwash Worsted, this stockinette stitch design features a fair isle yoke and set-in sleeves. Both the sweater and tunic length options are knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. Colorwork pattern is charted only.
